I have a Centos 7 CT with 2 GB swap limit. But when I boot into it, it shows me the host's 8 GB available for swap. Weird?

in a qemu/VM you define the swap inside your Centos.
 
Ok, so here's a little update.

Centos 7 ignores the swap setting and uses the host system's swap limit.
Centos 6 obeys the limit set by proxmox.

Both are installed from default templates inside proxmox.
Weird.
 
if you mean containers, please do not talk about VM.

VM is used for "virtual machines base on QEMU".

Containers (CT) are LXC containers.

If you follow this, its easier for others to understand what you are asking here.
