Chapter 5. Allocating additional resources to OpenShift AI users
As a cluster administrator, you can allocate additional resources to a cluster to support compute-intensive data science work. This support includes increasing the number of nodes in the cluster and changing the cluster’s allocated machine pool.
Prerequisites
- You have credentials for administering clusters in OpenShift Cluster Manager (https://console.redhat.com/openshift/). For more information about configuring administrative access in OpenShift Cluster Manager, see Configuring access to clusters in OpenShift Cluster Manager.
- If you intend to increase the size of a machine pool by using accelerators, you have ensured that your OpenShift cluster supports them.
-
You have an AWS or GCP instance with the capacity to create larger container sizes. For compute-intensive operations, your AWS or GCP instance has enough capacity to accommodate the largest container size,
