With this config, the GKE cluster is not able to schedule the pod.

I’m facing the same issue

  jobs:
    resources:
      requests:
        cpu: <your value>
        memory: <your value>
      limits:
        cpu: <your value>
        memory: <your value>```
in your `values.yaml` should help

I tried that, but it’s not working! It stills the default values (2Gi memory / 2CPU).

What values did you provide?

7 
  jobs:
    resources:
      requests:
        memory: 256Mi
        cpu: 100m
      limits:
        memory: 1Gi
        cpu: 1```

How did you install this? With helm or with abctl maybe?

Can you try deleting the server and workload-launcher pods? Sometimes you need to manually bounce these to pick up new config changes.

Ohh now, i can go to sleep!
It’s working after deleting the server and workload-launcher pods.

This detail deserve a place in the documentation :slightly_smiling_face:

I agree. We’d also prefer that it automatically restarts.
