This KEP proposes extending the existing "In-Place Pod Resize" (IPPR) functionality to support resources specified at the Pod level, building upon the foundations laid by KEP-2837: Pod Level Resource Specifications. Currently, IPPR primarily focuses on dynamically adjusting container-level resource allocations. With the introduction of pod-level resource limits and requests (as proposed in (KEP#2387), it becomes essential to enable the in-place resizing of these aggregate pod-level resources without requiring a full pod restart. This enhancement will provide greater flexibility and efficiency in managing the overall resource consumption of multi-container pods
