This ACE practice question tests your understanding of a team wants to roll back a gke deployment to its…. Read the scenario carefully and evaluate each option against the stated constraints before committing to an answer. After answering, compare your reasoning against the explanation and wrong-answer breakdown below. Once you have made your selection, read the full explanation to reinforce the concept and understand why each distractor is designed to mislead on exam day.
A team wants to roll back a GKE Deployment to its previous revision because the new version introduced a regression. Which kubectl command performs this rollback?
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Good practice is not just finding the correct option. The wrong answers often show the exact trap the exam wants you to fall into.
A
Distractor review
kubectl delete deployment/my-app && kubectl create -f deployment.yaml
Deleting and recreating causes unnecessary downtime and loses Deployment history. `kubectl rollout undo` is the correct tool.
B
Best answer
kubectl rollout undo deployment/my-app
`kubectl rollout undo` reverts the Deployment to the previous ReplicaSet, effectively rolling back to the last stable version.
C
Distractor review
kubectl revert deployment/my-app --to-previous
`kubectl revert` is not a valid kubectl command. Use `kubectl rollout undo`.
D
Distractor review
kubectl apply -f previous-deployment.yaml
This works if you have the old YAML, but requires the file to be available and up-to-date. `kubectl rollout undo` is simpler and uses Kubernetes' built-in revision history.
Common exam trap
Common exam trap: answer the scenario, not the keyword
Many certification questions include familiar terms but test a specific constraint. Read the exact wording before choosing an answer that is generally true but wrong for this case.
Technical deep dive
How to think about this question
This question should be treated as a scenario, not a definition check. Identify the problem, the constraint and the best action. Then compare each option against those facts.
KKey Concepts to Remember
- Read the scenario before looking for a memorised answer.
- Find the constraint that changes the correct option.
- Eliminate answers that are true in general but not in this case.
- Use explanations to understand the rule behind the answer.
TExam Day Tips
- Underline the problem statement mentally.
- Watch for words such as best, first, most likely and least administrative effort.
- Review why wrong options are wrong, not only why the correct option is correct.
Key takeaway
Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.

FAQ
Questions learners often ask
What does this ACE question test?
Read the scenario before looking for a memorised answer.
What is the correct answer to this question?
The correct answer is: kubectl rollout undo deployment/my-app — `kubectl rollout undo deployment/[NAME]` reverts a Deployment to its previous revision. `--to-revision=N` can target a specific historical revision. This is faster than manually editing the Deployment spec and reapplying.
What should I do if I get this ACE question wrong?
Identify which ACE exam domain this question belongs to, then review the specific concept being tested. Practise related questions in that domain and focus on understanding why each wrong answer is tempting — not just why the correct answer is right.
