title: Configure Quality of Service for Pods
content_type: task
weight: 60
---
<!-- overview -->
This page shows how to configure Pods so that they will be assigned particular
{{< glossary_tooltip text="Quality of Service (QoS) classes" term_id="qos-class" >}}.
Kubernetes uses QoS classes to make decisions about evicting Pods when Node resources are exceeded.
When Kubernetes creates a Pod it assigns one of these QoS classes to the Pod:
* [Guaranteed](/docs/concepts/workloads/pods/pod-qos/#guaranteed)
* [Burstable](/docs/concepts/workloads/pods/pod-qos/#burstable)
* [BestEffort](/docs/concepts/workloads/pods/pod-qos/#besteffort)
## {{% heading "prerequisites" %}}
{{< include "task-tutorial-prereqs.md" >}}
You also need to be able to create and delete namespaces.
<!-- steps -->
## Create a namespace
Create a namespace so that the resources you create in this exercise are
isolated from the rest of your cluster.
```shell
kubectl create namespace qos-example
```
## Create a Pod that gets assigned a QoS class of Guaranteed
For a Pod to be given a QoS class of `Guaranteed`:
* Every Container in the Pod must have a memory limit and a memory request.
* For every Container in the Pod, the memory limit must equal the memory request.
* Every Container in the Pod must have a CPU limit and a CPU request.
* For every Container in the Pod, the CPU limit must equal the CPU request.
These restrictions apply to init containers and app containers equally.
[Ephemeral containers](/docs/concepts/workloads/pods/ephemeral-containers/)
cannot define resources so these restrictions do not apply.
Here is a manifest for a Pod that has one Container. The Container has a memory limit and a
memory request, both equal to 200 MiB. The Container has a CPU limit and a CPU request, both equal to 700 milliCPU:
{{% code_sample file="pods/qos/qos-pod.yaml" %}}
Create the Pod:
```shell
kubectl apply -f https://k8s.io/examples/pods/qos/qos-pod.yaml --namespace=qos-example
```
View detailed information about the Pod:
```shell
kubectl get pod qos-demo --namespace=qos-example --output=yaml
```
The output shows that Kubernetes gave the Pod a QoS class of `Guaranteed`. The output also
verifies that the Pod Container has a memory request that matches its memory limit, and it has
a CPU request that matches its CPU limit.
```yaml
spec:
containers:
...
resources:
limits:
cpu: 700m
memory: 200Mi
requests:
cpu: 700m
memory: 200Mi
...
status:
qosClass: Guaranteed
```
{{< note >}}
If a Container specifies its own memory limit, but does not specify a memory request, Kubernetes
automatically assigns a memory request that matches the limit. Similarly, if a Container specifies its own
CPU limit, but does not specify a CPU request, Kubernetes automatically assigns a CPU request that matches
the limit.

#### Clean up {#clean-up-guaranteed}
Delete your Pod:
```shell
kubectl delete pod qos-demo --namespace=qos-example
```
## Create a Pod that gets assigned a QoS class of Burstable
A Pod is given a QoS class of `Burstable` if:
* The Pod does not meet the criteria for QoS class `Guaranteed`.
* At least one Container in the Pod has a memory or CPU request or limit.
Here is a manifest for a Pod that has one Container. The Container has a memory limit of 200 MiB
and a memory request of 100 MiB.
{{% code_sample file="pods/qos/qos-pod-2.yaml" %}}
Create the Pod:
```shell
kubectl apply -f https://k8s.io/examples/pods/qos/qos-pod-2.yaml --namespace=qos-example
```
View detailed information about the Pod:
```shell
kubectl get pod qos-demo-2 --namespace=qos-example --output=yaml
```
The output shows that Kubernetes gave the Pod a QoS class of `Burstable`:
```yaml
spec:
containers:
- image: nginx
imagePullPolicy: Always
name: qos-demo-2-ctr
resources:
limits:
memory: 200Mi
requests:
memory: 100Mi
...
status:
qosClass: Burstable
```
<!-- 4th level heading to suppress entry in nav -->
#### Clean up {#clean-up-burstable}
Delete your Pod:
```shell
kubectl delete pod qos-demo-2 --namespace=qos-example
```
## Create a Pod that gets assigned a QoS class of BestEffort
For a Pod to be given a QoS class of `BestEffort`, the Containers in the Pod must not
have any memory or CPU limits or requests.
Here is a manifest for a Pod that has one Container. The Container has no memory or CPU
limits or requests:
{{% code_sample file="pods/qos/qos-pod-3.yaml" %}}
Create the Pod:
```shell
kubectl apply -f https://k8s.io/examples/pods/qos/qos-pod-3.yaml --namespace=qos-example
```
View detailed information about the Pod:
```shell
kubectl get pod qos-demo-3 --namespace=qos-example --output=yaml
```
The output shows that Kubernetes gave the Pod a QoS class of `BestEffort`:
```yaml
spec:
containers:
...
resources: {}
...
status:
qosClass: BestEffort
```
<!-- 4th level heading to suppress entry in nav -->
#### Clean up {#clean-up-besteffort}
Delete your Pod:
```shell
kubectl delete pod qos-demo-3 --namespace=qos-example
```
## Create a Pod that has two Containers
Here is a manifest for a Pod that has two Containers. One container specifies a memory
request of 200 MiB. The other Container does not specify any requests or limits.
{{% code_sample file="pods/qos/qos-pod-4.yaml" %}}
Notice that this Pod meets the criteria for QoS class `Burstable`. That is, it does not meet the
criteria for QoS class `Guaranteed`, and one of its Containers has a memory request.
Create the Pod:
```shell
kubectl apply -f https://k8s.io/examples/pods/qos/qos-pod-4.yaml --namespace=qos-example
```
View detailed information about the Pod:
```shell
kubectl get pod qos-demo-4 --namespace=qos-example --output=yaml
```
The output shows that Kubernetes gave the Pod a QoS class of `Burstable`:
```yaml
spec:
containers:
...
name: qos-demo-4-ctr-1
resources:
requests:
memory: 200Mi
...
name: qos-demo-4-ctr-2
resources: {}
...
status:
qosClass: Burstable
```
## Retrieve the QoS class for a Pod
Rather than see all the fields, you can view just the field you need:
```bash
kubectl --namespace=qos-example get pod qos-demo-4 -o jsonpath='{ .status.qosClass}{"\n"}'
```
```none
Burstable
```
## Clean up
Delete your namespace:
```shell
kubectl delete namespace qos-example
```
