Overview

Quotas enforce per-project resource limits to prevent over-consumption and ensure fair resource distribution across tenants. Polystack Compute tracks quotas for instances, vCPUs, RAM, server groups, key pairs, and other compute resources.
Administrator Access Required — This operation requires the admin role. Contact your Polystack administrator if you do not have sufficient permissions.
Prerequisites
  • Administrator access for modifying quotas
  • Users can view their own project quota usage in the instance create wizard

Default Compute Quotas


View Quota Usage

Quota usage is displayed in real-time during instance creation. The Instance Create wizard (Step 4: Confirm Config) shows a footer badge with current usage for: Instances, CPU, Memory, Volumes, Volume Capacity, and Server Group Members.If any quota would be exceeded, the badge turns red and the submit button is disabled.
The Dashboard does not provide a dedicated quota management page. Quota modifications are performed via the CLI or through the deployment console configuration.
