Chapter 8. Allocating additional resources to OpenShift Data Science users
As a cluster administrator, you can allocate additional resources to a cluster to support compute-intensive data science work. This 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 are increasing the size of a machine pool using NVIDIA GPUs, your OpenShift Dedicated cluster supports them.
- You have an AWS or GCP instance with the capacity to create larger container sizes.
-
For compute-intensive operations, you have an AWS or GCP instance with enough capacity to accommodate the largest container size,
