We can also run this to show nodes by label ``` kubectl get no -l disk=ssd ``` ## Create and Apply the Pod YAML **Create a file named `pod.yaml` and ensure that it has specified the node with the label `disk=ssd`** **pod.yaml**

apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
    name: new-pod
spec:
   containers:
    - name: nginx
      image: nginx 
   nodeSelector:
      disk: ssd

**Apply the YAML to your Kubernetes cluster** ``` kubectl create -f pod.yaml ``` ## Verify The pod is Running on the Correct Node **Run a command that will show the pods and their associated nodes** ``` kubectl get po -o wide ```
