Hi,

I am running CentOS 5.2 with HyperVM (the most current from their website) with OpenVZ as installed by HyperVM (ovzkernel-PAE.i686 2.6.18-92.1.18.el5.028 reported by yum).

The issue I am having is, in HyperVM the quota I am setting doesn't seem to be getting enforced in the vps. For example, I created a CentOS 5.2 VM with 100G of HD quota. When I run df on the VM, I see:

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/simfs 61G 342M 57G 1% /

Similarly, I created a VM with 2TB of HD quota and saw the same output.

Is this something to do with the fact that I am using a 4TB LVM for the VMs HD space? Or something to do with quotas?

I am at a loss as to why it would show 61G instead of the HD I allocated in HyperVM.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Vadtec

Hello,

first of all we should determine if it is HyperVM or OpenVZ specific problem.

Could you please show from inside the VE
# ls -l /etc/mtab

and also VE's configuration file (/etc/vz/conf/$VEID.conf)

That information was taken from my VM. I don't see this as being a HyperVM problem. HyperVM simply configures the VM in this case. It doesn't actually control the VM to the point of saying "You will have a HD of X size today." At least thats my interpretation of how it works. This is my first go with OpenVZ and HyperVM, so I am at a loss as to where the issue may lie. I have checked the documentation for both packages and haven't been able to find anything related to this particular issue. Your help is greatly appreciated.

Hello,

please try the following

(inside VE)
# rm /etc/mtab
# ln -s   /proc/mounts  /etc/mtab

[root@vps2 ~]# rm /etc/mtab
rm: remove regular file `/etc/mtab'? y
[root@vps2 ~]# ln -s /proc/mounts /etc/mtab
[root@vps2 ~]# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/simfs 59G 342M 55G 1% /
[root@vps2 ~]# ls -la /etc/mtab
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Feb 11 04:52 /etc/mtab -> /proc/mounts
[root@vps2 ~]# ls -la /proc/mounts
lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 11 Feb 11 04:52 /proc/mounts -> self/mounts

That made it worse. Taking what is shown in HyperVM for the resource limits for the VM:

Resource Used Max
Disk 342 MB 100 GB
Inode 20445 52428800
Memory 23 MB 512 MB

Why is the VM showing only 59G when it has been configured for 100G?

Thanks again,

Vadtec

Could you please show

- "cat /proc/mounts", "df -h" from the HN and from inside the VE
- "uname -a" from the HN
- what ostemplate did you use for VE?
- vzctl --version

I powered down the VM and changed the hd quota to 10G, and this was the result after power up:

[root@vps2 ~]# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/simfs 10G 342M 9.7G 4% /
[root@vps2 ~]# ls -la /etc/mtab
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 171 Feb 11 05:11 /etc/mtab
[root@vps2 ~]# ls -la /proc/mounts
lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 11 Feb 11 05:12 /proc/mounts -> self/mounts

What is showing in HyperVM:

Resource Used Max
Disk 342 MB 10 GB
Inode 20443 5242880
Memory 20 MB 512 MB


So I powered down again and changed the hd quota back to 100G:

[root@vps2 ~]# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/simfs 59G 342M 55G 1% /
[root@vps2 ~]# ls -la /etc/mtab
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 171 Feb 11 05:15 /etc/mtab
[root@vps2 ~]# ls -la /proc/mounts
lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 11 Feb 11 05:16 /proc/mounts -> self/mounts

Here is what HyperVM is showing once again:

Resource Used Max
Disk 342 MB 100 GB
Inode 20443 52428800
Memory 20 MB 512 MB

Give than HyperVm was showing 10G and the VM was showing 10G, I do not see this as a HyperVM issue. How does OpenVZ allocate HD space, and does it allocate it all at once?

Thanks,

Vadtec

Hello,

this output confused me.

I cannot see /vz as a separate partition at the same moment we see
"lvm:VolGroup01/130 /vz/root/130 simfs rw 0 0". Could you possibly explain how this might happened? How did you configure the HN?

And if /vz is not a separate partition "df -h" shows only 55Gb available so no wonder we obtain the similar result inside VE.
Thank you.

In HyperVM, there is an option that allows me to specify where the VM should be stored on the host machine. I have this set to lvm:VolGroup01, so as I understand it, OpenVZ should be storing the VMs in VolGroup01, not /vz...

Is this something where I should replace VolGroup01 with an ext3 formatted partition and mount it as /vz?

Never mind, I found the answer to my question. I was mixing up Xen and OpenVZ when I created the LVM. Xen can use LVM. That makes a little more sense now.
