I use this page to interpret these results: http://wiki.openvz.org/UBC_systemwide_configuration

Ratios on 101 (my big server) look dire. Ignore lowmem, as this is an AMD64.

RAM on VE 101 is 8.01. If I add up the numbers physpages*4096 + kmemsize + tcpsndbuf + tcprcvbuf + dgramrcvbuf + othersockbuf, I get 163359801, which is 155.8MB. For the ratio to be 8.01, the system thinks (or treats) my server like it has 19.45MB of RAM. Maths on VE 106 (arbitrarily chosen) shows similar.

Something isn't right.

I mention again that I'm running the FZA kernel (from the debian-systs repository), which I chose for reasons that no longer apply. I can go back to the slightly more official kernel if something is broken inside the kernel, but I'm keen to avoid reboots, as this is a production server on the other side of the world.

Other than that, what can I try?
