Enforcing a cap on agent's resource consumption

tmeksik — Tue, 18 Mar 2025 21:46:02 GMT

Hi team

Is there a way to implement a limitation on how much resources the agent is allowed to consume i.e. a cap on CPU and memory usage?

Thanks

Tum

Hello @tmeksik ,

Thanks for reaching out on LiveCommunity!

We can do it with the help of Support Exception. However, you need to explain and validate with data points why the CPU/resource consumption is abnormally high (task manager screenshot will not suffice)

You can open a TAC case for the same.

Hi @aspatil ,

Can we proactively cap the resource consumption to a certain limit to prevent any potential issues caused by the agent?

It depends upon the scenarios. You can reach out to TAC for further assistance.
