Disk Limit |
DLIMIT |
Disk Limit is the maximum disk usage for a VPS server. |
Disk Limit cannot be exceeded. No more data will be dumped into the disk if disk usage reaches Disk Limit.
Minimal VPS installation requires ~ 500MB allocated disk space. |
vps-dlimit-set vps-dlimit-get |
Memory Limit |
MLIMIT |
Memory Limit is the maximum total memory usage for processes running and libraries loaded on a VPS server. |
Memory Limit depends on tasks running on a VPS server.
Memory Limit cannot be exceeded. No more memory will be allocated if VPS total memory usage reaches Memory Limit.
VPS server total memory usage = resident/virtual memory usage + system SWAP
Minimal VPS installation requires ~15-20Mb allocated memory. |
vps-mlimit-set vps-mlimit-get |
Process Limit |
PLIMIT |
Process Limit is the maximum number of processes running inside a VPS server. |
Process Limit cannot be exceeded. No new processes will be created if the number of running processes reaches Process Limit.
Minimal VPS installation requires ~10-20 processes to run. |
vps-proclimit-set vps-proclimit-get |
Context RSS Limit (2.5+)
|
RSSLIMIT |
Context RSS Limit is maximum resident/virtual memory usage for for processes running and libraries
loaded on a VPS server. |
Context RSS Limit depends on virtual memory available on the host server (physical machine), on tasks running on a VPS,
and on total memory limit.
Context RSS Limit cannot exceed Memory Limit.s
When VPS virtual memory usage exceeds RSS limit, VPS starts to use the host server's SWAP.
Recommended value for Context RSS Limit = 1/3 * Memory Limit. |
|
File Limit (2.5+) |
FILELIMIT |
File Limit is the maximum number of file handlers opened inside a VPS server. |
File Limit cannot be exceeded. No new files will be opened if the number of opened file handlers reaches File Limit.
Minimal VPS installation requires ~150-200 opened file handlers allowed. |
vps-flimit-set vps-flimit-get |
TCP Socket Limit (2.5+) |
TCPLIMIT |
TCP Socket Limit is the maximum number of TPC connections established on a VPS server. |
TCP Socket Limit cannot be exceeded. No new connection via TCP (for example, SSH connections) will be established
if their number reaches TCP Sockets Limit. |
vps-tcplimit-set vps-tcplimit-get |
CPU Hard Limit (2.5+) |
HARDCPU |
CPU Hard Limit is the maximum CPU usage (of all host server CPUs) for a VPS server |
CPU Hard Limit must be less than 100%.
CPU Hard Limit cannot be exceeded. When usage reaches CPU Hard Limit, new task will be waiting for free CPU resources.
CPU Hard Limit depends on VPS task priority. |
