Kubernetes is organized in clusters and node pools. The node pools are created in the context of a cluster. The servers belonging to the node pool are provisioned into the Virtual Data Center (VDC). All servers within a node pool are identical in their configuration.
Nodes, also known as worker nodes, are the servers in your data center that are managed by Kubernetes and constitute your node pools. All Resources managed by Kubernetes in your data centers will be displayed by the DCD as read-only.
You can see, inspect, and position the managed resources as per your requirements. However, the specifications of the resources are locked for manual interactions to avoid undesirable results. To modify the managed resources, use the Kubernetes Manager. You can manage the following resource types based on your deployed pods and configurations:

The Inspector for Managed Resources allows easy navigation between the data centers, clusters, and node pools in the Kubernetes Manager. Here, you can:
Switch to the Kubernetes Manager and show the respective node pool.
Download the kubeconfig to access the cluster.
List all nodes in the data center belonging to the same node pool.
All operations related to the infrastructure of clusters can be performed using the Kubernetes Manager, including cluster and node creation and scaling of node pools. The status of a cluster is indicated by different statuses.
The status is transitional, and the cluster is temporarily locked for modifications.
The status is unavailable, and the cluster is locked for modifications.
The status is in progress. Modifications to the cluster are in progress, the cluster is temporarily locked for modifications.
The status is active, and the cluster is available and running.
