Allow addition of custom resource limits in kubernetes containers

XMLWordPrintable

      Description
      Currently, it is not possible to add custom resource limits to kubernetes containers unless you write raw yaml.
      A rudimentary example would be:

      ...
         containers:
          - name: NAME
            ...
            resources:
              limits:
                nvidia.com/gpu: 1 # requesting 1 GPU
      ...
      

      Here the last line cannot be added easily with the interface.

      Possible Solution
      Add this functionality similar to the EnvVars variable, where multiple limits can be defined by hand with name and value. So basically replace EnvVars with limits in the following screenshot:

      Additional Context
      A complete example (not for jenkins) would be:

      apiVersion: v1
      kind: Pod
      metadata:
        name: cuda-vector-add
        namespace: nvidia 
      spec: 
        restartPolicy: OnFailure
        serviceAccount: nvidia-deviceplugin
        serviceAccountName: nvidia-deviceplugin
        containers:
          - name: cuda-vector-add
            image: "docker.io/mirrorgooglecontainers/cuda-vector-add:v0.1"
            env:
              - name: NVIDIA_VISIBLE_DEVICES
                value: all
              - name: NVIDIA_DRIVER_CAPABILITIES
                value: "compute,utility"
              - name: NVIDIA_REQUIRE_CUDA
                value: "cuda>=5.0"
            securityContext:
              privileged: true
            resources:
              limits:
                nvidia.com/gpu: 1 # requesting 1 GPU
