When I am creating a container if I don’t specify any cpu or memory resources is there a default setting that DO sets of those containers? Im fairly new to k8s so im not sure how to look this up with kubectl.
Thank,
Chris

The default, I don’t know, but I can tell you this:
If you want to find out the resource limit / request then you can see the value by describing the deployment / pod, for example: kubectl describe deployment ping or kubectl describe pod ping. You will see something like this:
spec:
containers:
resources:
limits:
cpu: 300m
memory: 128Mi
You can read more about resource limiting on kubernetes.io
