 Avoid managing resource quota limits manually. To prevent misconfigurations or scheduling issues, rely on the automatic resource limit management provided by {VirtProductName} unless you have a specific need to override the defaults.

-Resource quotas that only use requests automatically work with VMs. If your resource quota uses limits, you must manually set resource limits on VMs. Resource limits must be at least 100 MiB larger than resource requests.
+Resource quotas that only use requests automatically work with VMs. If your resource quota uses limits, you must manually set resource limits on VMs.
+Memory resource limits, defined by the `spec.template.spec.domain.resources.limits.memory` value, must be at least 500 MiB, or 2% larger than the `spec.template.spec.domain.memory.guest` value.
