This section lists the Plesk resources that are included in reseller subscriptions. To view the resources allocated for your account, Go to Home > My Resources and Permissions Overview

Oversell policy

The overselling option defines if you can sell more resources than what is allocated to you with the plan. If overselling is allowed, the actual resource usage is what governs you instead of the initial resource allocation. If overselling is prohibited, you can only create the number of service subscriptions that is limited by the total amount of disk space or traffic provided to you with your plan.

Overselling is a marketing strategy that involves allocating more resources than what is actually available. For example, a reseller who is allotted ten gigabytes of disk space, may allocate five gigabytes of disk space to each of their customers, assuming that they will not use all of the allocated disk space. This allows the reseller to sell more resources than they actually have, but it is important to note that if all customers use all the resources they were allocated, it could lead to overuse and service disruption.
