* `max_capacity` - (Optional) (Integer) The maximum number of instances the pool can contain, including both idle instances and ones in use by clusters. Once the maximum capacity is reached, you cannot create new clusters from the pool and existing clusters cannot autoscale up until some instances are made idle in the pool via [cluster](cluster.md) termination or down-scaling. There is no default limit, but as a [best practice](https://docs.databricks.com/clusters/instance-pools/pool-best-practices.html#configure-pools-to-control-cost), this should be set based on anticipated usage.
