What are these labs supposed to be run against?  Once again, the introductory module says that we're going to use minikube, but these labs seem to imply that you need to bootstrap you own cluster.  Can you update the labs so they're more specific about the environment you should be using.

    I see that, but should we assume that is carried through to the rest of the labs?  Some of the instructor videos show him using minikube, others GCP.  I just think the labs in each module need to be more clear about the environment.

    Hi,

    We are currently working on updating the entire LFS258 course.

    The first part of this process was completed - the old labs were removed, and replaced with new and improved ones, using Kubernetes 1.9.1, same as the exam (the CKA exam moved to Kubernetes 1.9.1 as of this morning). All new labs use the same setup, to be more specific.

    The second part of this project is to update the course content (text and videos), which will be completed in about 4-5 weeks. We decided to roll out the updated labs first as they are hands-on exercises using the same Kubernetes version as the exam. 

    We do apologize for the inconvenience caused by the current discrepancy between the course content and the lab exercises, but we are working on completing the updates as soon as possible, and making the entire course a much better training experience. 

    Thank you for your patience,

    Flavia

    Thanks Flavia.  I guess I'll wait for the course content to be updated before continuing.  I see no sense on continuing when there's such a discepancy between the course content and the labs.
