### Scheduling

  - Opaque Integer Resources (OIRs) are deprecated and will be removed in
    version 1.9. Extended Resources (ERs) are a drop-in replacement for OIRs. You can use
    any domain name prefix outside of the `kubernetes.io/` domain instead of the
    `pod.alpha.kubernetes.io/opaque-int-resource-` prefix.
