 ### Resource Limits
 
 When specified and supported, a resource limit will ensure that your app does not go _over_ the specified value. If this occurs, the underlying scheduler may either cap resource utilization, or it may decide to terminate and reschedule your process.

+## Supported Resource Management Properties
+
+The `docker-local` scheduler supports a minimal list of resource _limits_ and _reservations_. The following properties are supported:
+
+### Resource Limits
+
+- cpu: (docker option: `--cpus`), and is specified in number of CPUs a process can access.
+- memory: (docker option: `--memory`) and should be specified with a suffix of `b` (bytes), `k` (kilobytes), `m` (megabytes), `g` (gigabytes)
+- memory-swap: (docker option: `--memory-swap`) and should be specified with a suffix of `b` (bytes), `k` (kilobytes), `m` (megabytes), `g` (gigabytes)
+
+### Resource Reservations
+
+- memory: (docker option: `--memory-reservation`) and should be specified with a suffix of `b` (bytes), `k` (kilobytes), `m` (megabytes), `g` (gigabytes)
