VCF Operations offers a mechanism to track VCF limits and monitor consumption against those limits, ensuring customers are alerted when they are approaching or have exceeded a limit.
There are two types of limits in VCF: hard and soft. Hard limits are fixed and cannot be changed, while soft limits can be modified by CSMs and updated in the customer’s VCF or SDDC information.
Ideally, all limits should be retrieved via APIs; however, in the current version, some limits remain hardcoded.

Changing Limits in VCF Operations
When a request is made to update soft limit(s) in VCF, the corresponding limit(s) in VCF Operations should also be updated either automatically via API or manually through the VCF account configuration file.
Note: Ideally, all limits should be retrieved automatically via API. However, in the current version, some limits are hardcoded.
Manual Update Process
If the configuration file is updated manually:
Restart the VCF account and all relevant adapters to apply the changes.
Viewing and Editing Limits
