Limit compute resources for a Space

Last Updated February 19, 2025

You can set limits on the compute resources that the Kubernetes Spaces in your Project can consume. These limits are the Space resource limit policy. The policy is enforced uniformly on all Spaces created in the Project.

Create a Space resource limit policy

To create a Space resource limit policy:

  1. In the Tanzu Platform UI, go to Policies > Space Policies.
  2. Click Create Space Resource Limit Policy.
  3. Enter the CPU and memory limits that you want to enforce on each Space.
  4. Click Create.

When a user attempts to create a Space that violates these limits, the Space is not scheduled.

View the compliance status of a Space

You can view the status of each Space on the Space Policies page. The status fields are described in the following table.

Status fieldDescription
ComplianceThe Space complies with the policy.
UnknownIt is unknown whether the Space complies with the policy because the Space was created without limits before the policy was enforced.
ViolationThe Space was created before the policy was enforced and with higher limits than the policy permits.
