What is the way to ensure the nodes in a Kubernetes Engine cluster are running the latest version of Kubernetes?

  1. Enable the "Automatic node upgrades" option

  2. Run a manual update command

  3. Check each node individually for upgrades

  4. Restart the cluster

The correct answer is: Enable the "Automatic node upgrades" option

To ensure that the nodes in a Kubernetes Engine cluster are running the latest version of Kubernetes, enabling the "Automatic node upgrades" option is the best approach. This option will automatically update the nodes to the latest kubernetes version without any manual intervention. This is more efficient and saves time compared to manually upgrading each node or restarting the cluster. Furthermore, the Manual update command option (B) may require specific knowledge and could result in errors if not executed correctly. Checking each node individually (C) would be time-consuming and not efficient, especially in large clusters. Restarting the cluster (D) may not guarantee the latest version of Kubernetes to be running, as some nodes may not have been updated. Hence, option A is the most suitable way to ensure that the nodes in a Kubernetes Engine cluster are running the latest version of Kubernetes.
