# Update Exporter CPU and Memory Limits

The SingleStore exporter container collects health and performance data about a running cluster. Should an exporter container continue to crash, additional CPU and/or memory resources can be assigned to it.

* For the CPU, a value of `1.0` means one CPU. This value may also be fractional, such as `0.25` (25%) of a CPU.
* For memory, desired memory values must be specified in megabytes (MB).

SingleStore aggregator nodes and leaf nodes can be assigned CPU and memory values independently. These values may be adjusted in the `spec` section of the [sdb-cluster.yaml](https://docs.singlestore.com/db/v9.1/deploy/kubernetes/create-the-object-definition-files/sdb-cluster-yaml.md).

* In the `aggregatorSpec` section, revise the `cpu` and/or the `memoryMB` values under the `exporterConfig` section
* In the `leafSpec` section, revise the `cpu` and/or the `memoryMB` values under the `exporterConfig` section

When completed, [apply these changes](https://docs.singlestore.com/db/v9.1/reference/singlestore-operator-reference/apply-changes-to-a-cluster.md) to the cluster.

```yaml
spec:
  ...
  aggregatorSpec:
    ...
    exporterConfig:
      cpu: 0.25   # 1.0 means one cpu
      memoryMB: 256
  leafSpec:
    ...
    exporterConfig:
      cpu: 0.25   # 1.0 means one cpu
      memoryMB: 256
```
