Max Image Size
Max Compressed Image Size
Anchore Enterprise can be configured to have a size limit for images being added for analysis. Images that exceed the configured maximum size will not be added to Anchore and the catalog service will log an error message providing details of the failure. This size limit is applied when adding images to Anchore Enterprise via AnchoreCTL, tag subscriptions, and repository watchers.
By default the max_compressed_image_size_mb feature is disabled.
It can be enabled via the max_compressed_image_size_mb property in the Anchore Enterprise configuration file or by using the ANCHORE_MAX_COMPRESSED_IMAGE_SIZE_MB env variable.
- When a value greater than zero is supplied, the value represents the size limit in MB of the compressed image.
- When a value less than zero is supplied, it will disable the feature and allow images of any size to be added to Anchore.
- A value of 0 will prevent any images from being added.
- Finally, non-integer values will cause bootstrap of the service to fail.
If using Docker Compose with the default config, this can be set through the ANCHORE_MAX_COMPRESSED_IMAGE_SIZE_MB env variable on the catalog service.
If using Helm, it can be configurated by using the values file and adding the ANCHORE_MAX_COMPRESSED_IMAGE_SIZE_MB env variable to the catalog.extraEnv property.
