Managing VCF Automation Resource Utilization Using CPU Limits

My VCF 9.1 Lab environment is also cpu constraint.
To free up some cpu resources I shutdown VCF automation regularly.

I installed path release https://techdocs.broadcom.com/us/en/vmware-cis/vcf/vcf-9-0-and-later/9-1/release-notes/patch-releases-9-1-0-x/vcf-operations/9-1-0-0100.html

Booting VCF Automation takes al lot of resources. I see regularly spikes. See screenshot below.

Normally VCF automation runs between 8 – 10Ghz Which is normal and fine in a 3 Node MS-A2 setup.

To make my Lab environment a little bit safer i limit VCF automation till 25000mhz.
This keeps my MS-A2 a little cooler and ensures that the node does max out.
