Quota#

Create#

Overview#

The quota creation process allows administrators to define resource limits and optional configurations for containers and pods. This document outlines the steps to create a new quota, including the metadata, resource quota, and limit range configurations.

Step 1: Metadata#

quotaCreationMetadata

  • Name Field

    • The name field is mandatory and must be unique.
    • If the name already exists, an inline error message is displayed.

  • Error Handling

    • Regex Validation
    • The quota name must conform to the following regex pattern:
        /^[a-z0-9]+(-[a-z0-9]+)*$/
    • This ensures that quota names consist of lowercase alphanumeric characters and hyphens, and do not start or end with a hyphen.
    • The metadata section in the drawer while creating a quota is to provide a name for the quota. Users must ensure the quota name meets the specified criteria. Also, the quota name should not already exist in order to create a new quota.

Step 2: Resource Quota#

  1. Adding Resources
  2. The Resource dropdown allows the selection of resource types such as:
    • CPU Requests
    • Memory Requests
    • Config Maps
    • Secrets
    • Services
    • Load Balancer Services

  3. Enter the corresponding Value for the selected resource.

  4. Error Handling

  5. If an invalid format is entered in the Value field, an inline error message is displayed.

  6. Add Resource Button:

  7. Allows users to add multiple resources sequentially.

Step 3: Limit Range (Optional)#

The limit range section provides optional configurations for containers and pods. It includes:

  1. Container

  2. Configure limits for container resources by entering:

    • Min and Max values for resource types.
    • Default Request and Default Limit values.

  3. Pod

  4. Similar to the container section, allows configuration for pod-level resources.

  5. Error Handling

  6. No validation errors occur unless an invalid value is entered.
  7. Inline errors guide users in correcting their inputs.

Final Step: Save Quota#

  1. Add Quota Button

  2. Once all configurations are completed, users can click the Add Quota button to save the quota.

  3. Completion

  4. The system validates all input fields before saving.
  5. A confirmation message is displayed once the quota is successfully created.

Notes#

  • The entire quota creation process is intuitive, with inline validation to guide users.
  • Optional configurations like "Limit Range" allow flexibility based on use cases.

Update#

User can click on the edit button in the table under the action items to open the drawer with all the pre-populated quota configurations.

The update process follows a similar flow to the create process. However, the key difference is that the quota name in Step-1 cannot be edited or updated. All other steps and configurations remain the same, allowing users to modify resource quota, limit range values as needed.

Delete#

By clicking on the delete option in the quota table the user will be able to perform delete operation, a confirmation modal will open which will prompt the user to delete or cancel operation.
