The ResourceClaim has a pending state until it's referenced in a new Pod.\n\nCheck the state of the some-gpu ResourceClaim\n\nBounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):\n```shell\n    kubectl get resourceclaims -n dra-tutorial\n```\n\nBounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):\n```text\n    NAME       STATE     AGE\n    some-gpu   pending   76s\n```\n\nVerify that the driver has processed unpreparing the device for this claim by checking the driver logs\n\nBounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):\n```shell\n    kubectl logs -l app.kubernetes.io/name=dra-example-driver -n dra-tutorial\n```\n\nBounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):\n```text\n    I0820 18:22:15.629376       1 driver.go:138] UnprepareResourceClaims is called: number of claims: 1\n```\n\nYou have now deleted a Pod that had a claim, and observed that the driver took action to unprepare the underlying hardware resource and update the DRA APIs to reflect that the resource is available again for future scheduling.\n\nAttribution: Adapted from Kubernetes Documentation under CC-BY-4.0.
