VPS Resource Types

Resource types represent a variety of resources that your virtualization and backup nodes can provide: containers, virtual machines, CPU, RAM, disk space, backup space, as well as some other resources.

The default resource types are automatically set up when you install the Cloud Infrastructure Automation on CloudBlue Commerce management node (their name has VPS prefix). These resources are used in VPS Hosting service templates and subscriptions. You can find VPS resources in Operations control panel > Products > Resources.

Resource types are grouped into classes, depending on their role. All the resources, except VPS Backup Schedule (Monthly, Daily, Weekly, Custom), are required for a successful VPS provisioning.

The recommended values for resource types to be included in the VPS Hosting service template are shown in the table below. The values for resource types except Traffic, based on Application Counter resource class, are listed in Limit column and show minimum value for successful VPS provisioning.
