Chapter 5. Configuring resources for managed components on OpenShift Container Platform

Procedure

1. On the OpenShift Container Platform developer console, click Operators Installed Operators Red Hat Quay.
2. Click QuayRegistry.
3. Click the name of your registry, for example, example-registry.
4. Click YAML.

5. In the spec.components field, you can override the resource of the quay, clair, mirroring clairpostgres, and postgres resources by setting values for the .overrides.resources.limits and the overrides.resources.requests fields. For example:

   spec:
     components:
       - kind: clair
         managed: true
         overrides:
           resources:
             limits:
               cpu: "5"     # Limiting to 5 CPU (equivalent to 5000m or 5000 millicpu)
               memory: "18Gi"  # Limiting to 18 Gibibytes of memory
             requests:
               cpu: "4"     # Requesting 4 CPU
               memory: "4Gi"   # Requesting 4 Gibibytes of memory
       - kind: postgres
         managed: true
         overrides:
           resources:
             limits: {}

             requests:
               cpu: "700m"   # Requesting 700 millicpu or 0.7 CPU
               memory: "4Gi"   # Requesting 4 Gibibytes of memory
       - kind: mirror
         managed: true
         overrides:
           resources:
             limits:

             requests:
               cpu: "800m"   # Requesting 800 millicpu or 0.8 CPU
               memory: "1Gi"   # Requesting 1 Gibibyte of memory
       - kind: quay
         managed: true
         overrides:
           resources:
             limits:
               cpu: "4"    # Limiting to 4 CPU
               memory: "10Gi"   # Limiting to 10 Gibibytes of memory
             requests:
               cpu: "4"   # Requesting 4 CPU
               memory: "10Gi"   # Requesting 10 Gibi of memory
       - kind: clairpostgres
         managed: true
         overrides:
           resources:
             limits:
               cpu: "800m"   # Limiting to 800 millicpu or 0.8 CPU
               memory: "3Gi"   # Limiting to 3 Gibibytes of memory
             requests: {}

   1

   Setting the limits or requests fields to {} uses the default values for these resources.

   2

   Leaving the limits or requests field empty puts no limitations on these resources.

Procedure

1. Optional: If you do not have a local copy of the QuayRegistry YAML file, enter the following command to obtain it:

   $ oc get quayregistry <registry_name> -n <namespace> -o yaml > quayregistry.yaml

2. Open the quayregistry.yaml created from Step 1 of this procedure and make the desired changes. For example:

       - kind: quay
         managed: true
         overrides:
           resources:
             limits: {}
             requests:
               cpu: "0.7"   # Requesting 0.7 CPU (equivalent to 500m or 500 millicpu)
               memory: "512Mi"   # Requesting 512 Mebibytes of memory

3. Save the changes.

4. Apply the Red Hat Quay registry using the updated configurations by running the following command:

   $ oc replace -f quayregistry.yaml
