A developer creates a PVC without specifying a storageClassName. The cluster has a default StorageClass configured. What happens when the PVC is created?

The PVC remains pending until a PV is manually created.

The default StorageClass is used to dynamically provision a PV, and the PVC binds to it.

The PVC binds to any existing PV that matches the requested size and access mode.

The PVC is created but cannot be used because storageClassName is required.

What is the role of the StorageClass in dynamic volume provisioning?

It stores the actual data for the volume.

It pre-creates PVs that PVCs can bind to.

It acts as a template that the provisioner uses to create a PV when a PVC requests storage.

It defines the access modes that a PVC can use.

Which of the following is an example of a provisioner-specific parameter in a StorageClass?

volumeBindingMode: WaitForFirstConsumer

How do you mark a StorageClass as the default for dynamic provisioning?

Name the StorageClass "default"

Set the field isDefault: true in the StorageClass spec

Add the annotation storageclass.kubernetes.io/is-default-class: "true"

Set the field default: true in the StorageClass spec
