What are "Reseller Limits"?
CloudLinux Reseller Limits allow administrators to assign a specific set of system resource limits to a reseller that only that reseller and the resellers subaccounts can use.
For example:
A reseller has an overall limit of 8 CPU cores and the reseller has 25 active subaccounts.
All 25 accounts use/share the same 8 CPU cores of the resellers limit.
The more activity each subaccount has, the more CPU it will use and the overall reseller account will have less CPU available to its accounts in general.
So the more subaccounts a reseller creates and the more the subaccounts use system resources, such as CPU, the less available system resources the reseller account will have to use overall.
In order to keep any one subaccount from using too much of a resellers available system resources, Reseller Limits allows resellers to access the CloudLinux Manager to set the system resources for their subaccounts by creating limits for each hosting plan they have or even allows to manually set a specific accounts system resources.
Warning: Setting a plan or subaccounts system resources too low can have the opposite effect and cause even more resource usage trying to limit the account, so resellers should always set reasonable system resource limits for their plans/accounts.
