Infrastructure Scenario Tests

A production server's 10G SFP is failing, causing CRC errors and packet drops on the network interface. Applications experience intermittent connectivity and retransmissions.

A Kubernetes deployment enters CrashLoopBackOff because a ConfigMap was deleted during a cleanup script. The application cannot start without its configuration, and the backoff timer keeps increasing.

A dev team runs a massive data import job on a shared SAN, consuming all available IOPS. Production VMs on the same storage pool experience 10x latency increase, causing application timeouts.

A RAID 5 array on a file server has one failed drive and a second drive showing SMART predictive failure warnings. The array is rebuilding, but if the second drive fails before rebuild completes, all data is lost.

The database server's data partition fills to 100% due to an unrotated slow query log. PostgreSQL can no longer write WAL files. All database writes fail. Application is read-only.

A web server is compromised via an unpatched vulnerability. Crypto mining malware is consuming 100% CPU across all cores, making the web application unresponsive for legitimate users.

A production Java application server runs out of heap memory due to a memory leak in a recent deployment. The OOM killer terminates the JVM process, bringing down the application for all users.
