Managing virtual machine flavors

You can customize how virtual machines are configured and scheduled by using flavors. In the compute cluster, a flavor is a configuration template for virtual machines. Flavors simplify VM deployment by allowing you to set the number of virtual CPU cores, the amount of RAM, and other resource characteristics a VM will use.

By default, five predefined flavors are created with the following parameters:

Name	vCPUs	Memory
tiny	1	512 MiB
small	1	2 GiB
medium	2	4 GiB
large	4	8 GiB
xlarge	8	16 GiB
