Usage Limits

In this page, there is a listing where you can view details about all the usage limits.

info

Usage Limits are limits that can be set on different entities or resourses. These limits are tenant specific, meaning that you view only the limits that are set on a tenant you have selected from the ones you manage. Usage Limits are optional. Meaning that can be used as an add-on feature for an OpenCDMP installation if accounting service is enabled because accounting helps in the calculation of limits.

The information displayed by default is: the label, the target metric which is the resource metric this limit is enforced on, the limit value, the status of the entity and timestamps for the creation and updating of the entities. At the top right corner of the listing you can also select which columns to display.

You can edit or remove a limit by clicking on the three dots on the far right corner of the records and then select Edit or Delete respectively.
