    Warum und wann dieser Vorgang ausgeführt wird

    Informer pod memory consumption depends mainly on the number of resources contained in the cluster. Set the Informer pod’s memory limit to at least (number of pods)/8MB, with a minimum of 200MB. For example:

    Estimated pod count 1000 5000 30000
    Minimum memory limit 200Mi 625Mi 3.75Gi

    Prozedur

    Do one of the following:
    • When using a Helm chart, in the Helm install command, add the following command line argument:

      --set memoryLimit=MEM_LIMIT

      For example: --set memoryLimit=625Mi

    • When using the k8s_informer.yaml, under the line containing “limits:” add the line memory: MEM_LIMIT.
      In the following example, MEM_LIMIT is 625Mi.
      resources:
        limits:
          cpu: 100m
          memory: 625Mi
