Hi,
Our Dell server has 4Gb RAM installed and when it is booted using the Centos kernel (2.6.9-42.0.10.ELsmp) it displays this from /proc/meminfo:
MemTotal: 4147184 kB
MemFree: 4066004 kB
Buffers: 8888 kB
Cached: 28812 kB
SwapCached: 0 kB
Active: 29872 kB
Inactive: 19100 kB
HighTotal: 3276544 kB
HighFree: 3228544 kB
LowTotal: 870640 kB
LowFree: 837460 kB

SwapFree: 8385920 kB
Dirty: 196 kB
Writeback: 0 kB

When the server is booted using the OpenVZ kernel (2.6.9-023stab040.1-smp) it seems to only use ~3Gb RAM.
MemTotal: 3100996 kB

Committed_AS: 43704 kB
PageTables: 748 kB
VmallocTotal: 106488 kB
VmallocUsed: 16228 kB
VmallocChunk: 89980 kB
Is this what is expected or do I need to configure something differently?
Many thanks,
Steve
