Quota Breach Details

The Quota Breaches tab is displayed when resource usage has exceeded the defined limits and the service is in a suspended state. This page displays the details of the resource quota breach.

You can set any amount as your limit to monitor your resource usage. If this limit is exceeded, then it results in a quota breach. When there is a quota breach, your service is suspended and you can’t create new instances. However, your existing instances will continue to run.

The limits are defined in the Alert Rules page. The resource limit shown is based on any hard limits set for the service. For example, if you’ve purchased $200 credits and set a hard limit of 40%, (if using percentage) then the limit is shown as 80, which is 40% of 200. If using an absolute value for a hard limit of 40, then the limit is shown as 40. If this limit is exceeded, then this results in a quota breach.
