Allocate Devices to Workloads with DRA — Claim resources
You can request resources from a DeviceClass by using create a ResourceClaim, do one of the following Manually create a ResourceClaim if you want multiple Pods to share access to the same devices, or if you want a claim to exist beyond the lifetime of a Pod.

Manually create a ResourceClaim if you want multiple Pods to share access to the same devices, or if you want a claim to exist beyond the lifetime of a Pod. Use a to let Kubernetes generate and manage per-Pod ResourceClaims. Create a ResourceClaimTemplate if you want every Pod to have access to separate devices that have similar configurations. For example, you might want simultaneous access to devices for Pods in a Job that uses parallel execution.
If you directly reference a specific ResourceClaim in a Pod, that ResourceClaim must already exist in the cluster. If a referenced ResourceClaim doesn't exist, the Pod remains in a pending state until the ResourceClaim is created. You can reference an auto-generated ResourceClaim in a Pod, but this isn't recommended because auto-generated ResourceClaims are bound to the lifetime of the Pod that triggered the generation.
To create a workload that claims resources, select one of the following options
Review the following example manifest
This manifest creates a ResourceClaimTemplate that requests devices in the example-device-class DeviceClass that match both of the following parameters
Devices that have a driver.example.com/type attribute with a value of gpu. Devices that have 64Gi of capacity.
To create the ResourceClaimTemplate, run the following command
Bounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):
```shell
kubectl apply -f https://k8s.io/examples/dra/resourceclaimtemplate.yaml
