Automating the creation of Vertical Pod Autoscaler Custom Resource in Red Hat OpenShift 4
Issue
-
Is it possible to automatically point the
Vertical Pod Autoscaler Operator (VPA)Custom Resource (CR)to the deployment? -
When installing
Vertical Pod Autoscaler Operator, there is a need to manually create theVPA CRand specify the deployment it will manage, which is a tedious task. The need for automation arises because resourcerequestsandlimitsoften exceed the provided values. IfVPAcould automatically manage all deployments in the namespace, the resourcerequestsandlimitswould be balanced, and the node's resourcerequestsandlimitswould align accordingly.
