15.2.2. Default Account Resource Limits
You can limit resource use by accounts. The default limits are set by using global configuration
parameters, and they affect all accounts within a cloud. The relevant parameters are those beginning
with max.account, for example: max.account.snapshots.
To override a default limit for a particular account, set a per-account resource limit.
1. Log in to the CloudPlatform UI.
2. In the left navigation tree, click Accounts.
3. Select the account you want to modify. The current limits are displayed. A value of -1 shows that
