Change Agent Resource Installation Limits on K8s Environments

This article discusses how to change the CPU/memory installation limits for Kubernetes-based environments where the Lacework agent is deployed as a daemonset (pod/container).

The default resource limits for Kubernetes-based environments with an agent are as follows:

requests:
  cpu: 200m
  memory: 512Mi

limits:
  cpu: 500m
  memory: 1450Mi

Follow these steps to add resource limit to the Lacework-provided daemonset deployment file (lacework-k8s.yaml):

1. Open the provided daemonset deployment file (lacework-k8s.yaml).
2. Add your desired resource limits as illustrated in the following example:

    resources:
       limits:
         cpu: 600m
         memory: 1500Mi
