Feature Summary

As we are working on namespaces with quota limitations on our kubernetes cluster, we are unable to deploy awx-operator. Migration job created by operator has no resources specified and this is why pod is not created.

(combined from similar events): Error creating: pods "test-migration-24.3.0-cnkfj" is forbidden: failed quota: default-knlbg: must specify limits.cpu for: migration-job; limits.memory for: migration-job; requests.cpu for: migration-job; requests.memory for: migration-job

Is there a posibility to add resources to migration job template?

Have you tried setting a LimitRange?

apiVersion: v1
kind: LimitRange
metadata:
  name: limit-mem-cpu-per-pod
  namespace: my-ns
spec:
  limits:
  - max:
      cpu: "800m"
      memory: "1Gi"
    min:
      cpu: "100m"
      memory: "99Mi"
    type: Pod

That would ensure that every pod has pre-defined resources without overwriting existing resource specifications.

Yes, this is what has been done. But i'm not a cluster admin. Cluster was prepared by our K8S admins, we have limited access to configuration and also custom permissions to install operator.

I see.

If I am not mistaken there is a ResourceQuota on the namespace you are working on.
You can contact your k8s admins to enable a LimitRange, and specify resources for all pods that do not already have them.

Adding resources to the migration job is a good solution and I hope it is implemented, but there are also other pods (like the ones running AWX jobs) that will also have the same error.

The LimitRange solution has been working in my case.

[norbertgrz]

As i mentioned before, limitRange was already set on my cluster. About running jobs, isn't this setting ee_resource_requirements responsible for assigning resources to running execution environments?

[JMora77]

I thought so as well, but it did not work for me. However, I found out it can also be defined in the WebUI.

[norbertgrz]

Could you guide me where did you found thoses settings?

@norbertgrz, I ran into the same issue as you and stumbled upon this thread. I think @JMora77 means something along the lines of this which worked for me:

---
apiVersion: v1
kind: LimitRange
metadata:
  name: awx
  namespace: awx
spec:
  limits:
  - type: Container
    default:
      cpu: "300m"
      memory: "400Mi"
