OpenVZ VM exceeding limits

[flosoft]

Hi,

I have an OpenVZ VM with 1GB of assigned memory, however it is currently consuming 2.22GB.

Any reason why memory limits don't work in Proxmox 2 anymore?

Is this because of quota limits? What are those 2 options for (Quota UGID Limit / Quota Grace Period)?

Thanks!

is this a new CT or an upgrade from 1.9?

if its an upgraded/restore from 1.9, stop it and set the memory and swap (in 2.x we use vswap).

Hi tom,

thanks, that seems to have fixed (surprisingly even on the fly).
They were indeed VMs migrated from 1.9. So does SWAP always have to be set (i.e. can't be 0?) in order for the limits to be enforced?

Cheers
