Hi,
I'm running openvz through Proxmox-VE. I have a container (running
Debian/sid) that I am using as my puppet master, and am about to add a
postgres database for puppetdb, so I was reviewing the amount of
memory available to me with an eye toward adjusting it. This is when I
noticed wildly differing numbers from various places.
/proc/user_beancounters says:
105: kmemsize 88549787 120004608
206116305 226727936 0
lockedpages 0 548
262144 262144 0
privvmpages 200051 304016
524288 536788 0
shmpages 1294 2270
21504 21504 0
The proxmox web UI says:
Memory: 2.00GB
Swap: 0
But top and free give me different results:
top and free -m:
MiB Mem: 4194303 total, 2976 used, 4191327 free, 0 buffers
MiB Swap: 0 total, 0 used, 0 free, 2395 cached
free:
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: -4 3047456 -3047460 0 0 2453204
-/+ buffers/cache: 594252 -594256
Swap: 0 0 0
free -g:"
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 4095 2 4093 0 0 2
-/+ buffers/cache: 0 4095
Swap: 0 0 0
So how do I reconcile this and why are the numbers I am getting so
wonky? In essence, which source do I trust?
Thanks,
--b
