Troubleshooting Scheduling in Kubernetes Deployments
You are a container engineer at Cube4Lyf, an e-gaming platform geared towards puzzle and logic games. You've just been alerted that there's an issue with the deployment of a new web service to a staging cluster. The pods are stuck in a 'Pending' state. You need to investigate why the pods are not deploying and resolve the issue so the new web service can be assessed in the staging environment. There are a number of other resources currently active in the cluster, some are still needed, and others are not. You've been approved to delete any resources with the label `test=true`, if needed.
