Ch.8 Downward Pod not creating about kubernetes-in-action HOT 8 CLOSED

I've recreated same pod without cpu and memory allocation options, and that had worked fine. I think it would related to AKS cluster VMScaleSet VM, I'll check that separately, hence this issue can be closed.

Hi. It turns out the memory limit is too tight. Just increasing the limit to 10Mi is enough to make the pod start immediately.

Didn't work with 10Mi in minikube. Remove all resource options, it worked well. thanks @JaydeepUniverse

Yes indeed in minikube even with 15Mi it doesn't work, i remove the resources

The memory limit is set to 10 megabytes and it can run just a few more minutes.
