In order to schedule a given pod using a specific scheduler, specify the name of the scheduler in that pod spec. Let's look at three examples.\n\nPod spec without any scheduler name\n\nWhen no scheduler name is supplied, the pod is automatically scheduled using the default-scheduler.\n\nSave this file as pod1.yaml and submit it to the Kubernetes cluster.\n\nBounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):\n```shell\n  kubectl create -f pod1.yaml\n```\n\nPod spec with default-scheduler\n\nA scheduler is specified by supplying the scheduler name as a value to spec.schedulerName. In this case, we supply the name of the default scheduler which is default-scheduler.\n\nSave this file as pod2.yaml and submit it to the Kubernetes cluster.\n\nBounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):\n```shell\n  kubectl create -f pod2.yaml\n```\n\nPod spec with my-scheduler\n\nIn this case, we specify that this pod should be scheduled using the scheduler that we deployed - my-scheduler. Note that the value of spec.schedulerName should match the name supplied for the scheduler in the schedulerName field of the mapping KubeSchedulerProfile.\n\nSave this file as pod3.yaml and submit it to the Kubernetes cluster.\n\nBounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):\n```shell\n  kubectl create -f pod3.yaml\n```\n\nVerify that all three pods are running.\n\nBounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):\n```shell\n  kubectl get pods\n```\n\nAttribution: Adapted from Kubernetes Documentation under CC-BY-4.0.
