Resources Pools

Resource Pools are like secondary resources storage areas available on Zampto Hosting.

Example:

Your friend can create a Resource Pool, add 512MB of Memory to it, then add you as a user. You can also add additional resources, and both of you can use them to create, add, and manage server resources together!

Key Points:

• Each pool has its own admin, usually the pool creator.

• The admin can perform exclusive actions like Delete, Rename, and Add Users to the pool.

• Every user can take and add resources to the pool, view all changes and use the resources in the pool to create, update and manage servers.

In Premium Plans:

In premium plans, additional resources are provided through dedicated premium pools. These pools function like normal ones but with some restrictions:

• The admin can only rename the pool.

• The admin cannot remove or add users, nor delete the pool, as these are managed by the purchased plan linked to the pool admin user.

Creating a Server Using a Resources Pool

To create a server with the resources of a specific pool:

1. Click the Create Server button.

2. When asked to choose the resource location during setup, select the Pool you want to use.

3. Create the server as you normally would; the procedure is identical, the only difference being that you are limited and therefore use the resources of the pool you have selected.

Creating a Resources Pool

To create a Resource Pool:

1. Go to the Resources page and scroll to the bottom.

2. At the bottom, you’ll find a “Pools” section with a Create button.

3. Click Create, then on the next page, enter the Pool name and click Create again.

Viewing Total and Available (Unused) Resources

Next to each resource, you’ll see the following format:

[AVAILABLE (NOT IN USE, i.e., NOT ASSIGNED TO ANY SERVER)] / [TOTAL, INCLUDING ASSIGNED]

Example: Memory (RAM)

768 MB (0.75 GB) / 1,024 MB (1 GB)

This means you have 768 MB of Memory available to use, out of a total of 1,024 MB.
