## Extended Resources

Kubernetes version 1.8 introduces Extended Resources. Extended Resources are
fully-qualified resource names outside the `kubernetes.io` domain. Extended
Resources allow cluster operators to advertise new node-level resources that
would be otherwise unknown to the system. Extended Resource quantities must be
integers and cannot be overcommitted.
Extended Resources are fully-qualified resource names outside the
`kubernetes.io` domain. They allow cluster operators to advertise and users to
consume the non-Kubernetes-built-in resources.

Users can consume Extended Resources in Pod specs just like CPU and memory.
The scheduler takes care of the resource accounting so that no more than the
available amount is simultaneously allocated to Pods.
There are two steps required to use Extended Resources. First, the cluster
operator must advertise an Extended Resource. Second, users must request the
Extended Resource in Pods.

The API server restricts quantities of Extended Resources to whole numbers.
Examples of _valid_ quantities are `3`, `3000m` and `3Ki`. Examples of
_invalid_ quantities are `0.5` and `1500m`.
### Managing extended resources

**Note:** Extended Resources replace Opaque Integer Resources.
Users can use any domain name prefix other than "`kubernetes.io`" which is reserved.

#### Node-level extended resources

Node-level extended resources are tied to nodes.

There are two steps required to use Extended Resources. First, the
cluster operator must advertise a per-node Extended Resource on one or more
nodes. Second, users must request the Extended Resource in Pods.
##### Device plugin managed resources
See [Device
Plugin](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/cluster-administration/device-plugins/)
for how to advertise device plugin managed resources on each node.

To advertise a new Extended Resource, the cluster operator should
##### Other resources
To advertise a new node-level extended resource, the cluster operator can
submit a `PATCH` HTTP request to the API server to specify the available
quantity in the `status.capacity` for a node in the cluster. After this
operation, the node's `status.capacity` will include a new resource. The
`status.allocatable` field is updated automatically with the new resource
asynchronously by the kubelet. Note that because the scheduler uses the
node `status.allocatable` value when evaluating Pod fitness, there may
be a short delay between patching the node capacity with a new resource and the
first pod that requests the resource to be scheduled on that node.

#### Cluster-level extended resources

Cluster-level extended resources are not tied to nodes. They are usually managed
by scheduler extenders, which handle the resource comsumption, quota and so on.

You can specify the extended resources that are handled by scheduler extenders
in [scheduler policy
configuration](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/blob/release-1.10/pkg/scheduler/api/v1/types.go#L31).

**Example:**

The following configuration for a scheduler policy indicates that the
cluster-level extended resource "example.com/foo" is handled by scheduler
extender.
- The scheduler sends a pod to the scheduler extender only if the pod requests
"example.com/foo".
- The `ignoredByScheduler` field specifies that the scheduler does not check
the "example.com/foo" resource in its `PodFitsResources` predicate.

```json
{
"kind": "Policy",
"apiVersion": "v1",
"extenders": [
{
"urlPrefix":"<extender-endpoint>",
"bindVerb": "bind",
"ManagedResources": [
{
"name": "example.com/foo",
"ignoredByScheduler": true
}
]
}
]
}
```

### Consuming extended resources

Users can consume Extended Resources in Pod specs just like CPU and memory.
The scheduler takes care of the resource accounting so that no more than the
available amount is simultaneously allocated to Pods.

The API server restricts quantities of Extended Resources to whole numbers.
Examples of _valid_ quantities are `3`, `3000m` and `3Ki`. Examples of
_invalid_ quantities are `0.5` and `1500m`.

**Note:** Extended Resources replace Opaque Integer Resources.
Users can use any domain name prefix other than "`kubernetes.io`" which is reserved.
{: .note}

To consume an Extended Resource in a Pod, include the resource name as a key
in the `spec.containers[].resources.limits` map in the container spec.

**Note:** Extended resources cannot be overcommitted, so request and limit
must be equal if both are present in a container spec.
{: .note}

The Pod is scheduled only if all of the resource requests are
satisfied, including cpu, memory and any Extended Resources. The Pod will
remain in the `PENDING` state as long as the resource request cannot be met by
any node.
A Pod is scheduled only if all of the resource requests are satisfied, including
CPU, memory and any Extended Resources. The Pod remains in the `PENDING` state
as long as the resource request cannot be satisfied.

**Example:**

The Pod below requests 2 cpus and 1 "example.com/foo" (an extended resource.)
The Pod below requests 2 CPUs and 1 "example.com/foo" (an extended resource).
