Limits
|
|
======
|
|
|
|
Accounts may be pre-configured with a set of thresholds (or limits) to
|
|
manage capacity and prevent abuse of the system. The system recognizes
|
|
*absolute limits*. Absolute limits are fixed. Limits are configured by
|
|
operators and may differ from one deployment of the OpenStack Compute service
|
|
to another. Please contact your provider to determine the limits that
|
|
apply to your account. Your provider may be able to adjust your
|
|
account's limits if they are too low. Also see the API Reference for
|
|
`*Limits* <http://developer.openstack.org/api-ref/compute/#limits-limits>`__.

Absolute limits
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Absolute limits are specified as name/value pairs. The name of the
|
|
absolute limit uniquely identifies the limit within a deployment. Please
|
|
consult your provider for an exhaustive list of absolute limits names. An
|
|
absolute limit value is always specified as an integer. The name of the
|
|
absolute limit determines the unit type of the integer value. For
|
|
example, the name maxServerMeta implies that the value is in terms of
|
|
server metadata items.
|
|
