Summary:A method includes identifying high-availability jobs and low-availability jobs that demand usage of resources of a distributed system. The method includes determining a first quota of the resources available to low-availability jobs as a quantity of the resources available during normal operations, and determining a second quota of the resources available to high-availability jobs as a quantity of the resources available during normal operations minus a quantity of the resources lost due to a tolerated event. The method includes executing the jobs on the distributed system and constraining a total usage of the resources by both the high-availability jobs and the low-availability jobs to the quantity of the resources available during normal operations.
