Configuring VDOM resource limits
A VDOM’s resource limit defines how much resources a VDOM can consume. You can set a VDOM’s maximum and guaranteed limits for each resource. You can also view the current usage of the resources by the VDOM.
A VDOM’s maximum limit for a resource cannot be greater than the global maximum limit set for this resource. This value is not guaranteed if you have more than one VDOM with each one having a maximum limit value and all are running at the same time.
A VDOM’s guaranteed resource limit is the actual amount of resource a VDOM can use regardless of the number of VDOMs running at the same time. Although each VDOM can have its own guaranteed limit, the sum of guaranteed resource limits for all VDOMs must be less than or equal to the global maximum resource limit.
To configure a VDOM’s resource limits:
1. In the Device Manager tab, select the unit you want to configure.
2. In the FortiGate menu, select System > Virtual Domain > Virtual Domain.
3. Click the Resource Limit icon of a VDOM.
4. For each resource:
• enter the maximum value allowed for this resource. If you enter a wrong value, a warning appears with the correct value range.
• enter the value allocated for this resource. This value must be lower than or equal to the maximum value.
5. Click OK.
