# Resource limits

There are two options:

### Set limits via changing values.yaml

To set or change resource limits for pods you need to create the file `values.yaml` and add the following lines:

```yaml
resources:
   limits:
     cpu: 200m
     memory: 512Mi
   requests:
     cpu: 200m
     memory: 256Mi
```

Specify `values.yaml` file during chart install

```bash
helm install kafka-ui kafka-ui/kafka-ui -f values.yaml
```

### Set limits via CLI

To set limits via CLI you need to specify limits with helm install command.

```bash
helm install kafka-ui kafka-ui/kafka-ui --set resources.limits.cpu=200m --set resources.limits.memory=512Mi --set resources.requests.memory=256Mi --set resources.requests.cpu=200m 
```

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://ui.docs.kafbat.io/configuration/helm-charts/resource-limits.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
