Issue with service specifications

[GitHK]

If I setup and entry inside services_specifications which overwrites the memory and CPU limits, like the following CSV:

service_key,service_version,gid,sidecar
simcore/services/dynamic/jupyter-smash,3.0.7,2,"{""TaskTemplate"": {""Resources"": {""Limits"": {""NanoCPUs"": 4000000000, ""MemoryBytes"": 43687091200}}}}"

The following happens:

1. The dynamic-sidecar has its limits set to what is specified above (overwrite OK)
2. The created container running the jupyter-smash has the original limit (not overwritten)

---

Conclusions after investigation

• The webserver fetches the information regarding he limits from the catalog via the service resources endpoint (catalog) and passes down the information to the director-v2 who uses it to start the service.
• Clearly the service specifications endpoint (catalog) is used and the data is injected to the dynamic-sidecar when the service is started and overwrites the information about the resources coming from the webserver.
• The service specifications are only applied to the dynamic-sidecar.

Questions

• Should the service specifications also apply to the containers created by the dynamic sidecar? ( I guess no since these are mainly used as placement constraints and it was never intended to be used as showcased above)
• To obtain what I want to do above, I guess the webserver should inject the changed values as discussed prior to this.

@sanderegg care to elaborate more on this topic and what was the original goad and what it should be able to do or not to do.

@GitHK : this is not a bug. This has never been implemented due to lack of resources. You can only override the dy-sidecar specifications as per design. The rest of that feature (ITISFoundation/osparc-issues#618) will come once resources are freed to do so.

I think you may therefore close this bug .

I agree this is not a bug. Closing
