Charlie Voiselle 3cff38ff94 Spellcheck sweep of website directory
Caught some typos.  Made units separate from the numbers 1GHz -> 1 GHz
after talking to Nick about questions of style (this has the side effect of making future spell checking easier).

# `resources` Stanza
<table class="table table-bordered table-striped">

<th width="120">Placement</th>
<td>
<code>job -> group -> task -> **resources**</code>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
The `resources` stanza describes the requirements a task needs to execute.
Resource requirements include memory, network, CPU, and more.
```hcl
job "docs" {
group "example" {
task "server" {
resources {
cpu = 100
memory = 256
network {
mbits = 100
port "http" {}
port "ssh" {
static = 22
}
}
}
}
}
}
```
## `resources` Parameters
- `cpu` `(int: 100)` - Specifies the CPU required to run this task in MHz.
- `iops` `(int: 0)` - Specifies the number of IOPS required given as a weight
between 0-1000.
- `memory` `(int: 300)` - Specifies the memory required in MB
- `network` <code>([Network][]: <required>)</code> - Specifies the network
requirements, including static and dynamic port allocations.
## `resources` Examples
The following examples only show the `resources` stanzas. Remember that the
`resources` stanza is only valid in the placements listed above.
### Memory
This example specifies the task requires 2 GB of RAM to operate. 2 GB is the
equivalent of 2000 MB:
```hcl
resources {
memory = 2000
}
```
### Network
This example shows network constraints as specified in the [network][] stanza
which require 1 Gbit of bandwidth, dynamically allocates two ports, and
statically allocates one port:
```hcl
resources {
network {
mbits = 1000
port "http" {}
port "https" {}
port "lb" {
static = "8889"
}
}
}
```
