Hello,

Thank you for the reply!

Well, at first, I set the resources of my important and huge VEs to "unlimited". Then, I read the manual and there is a chapter about validating with "vzcfgvalidate":

Quote:

The system resource control parameters have complex interdependencies. Violation of these interdependencies can be catastrophic for the Virtual Private Server. In order to ensure that a Virtual Private Server does not break them, it is important to validate the VPS configuration file before creating VPSs on its basis.

So I tried the vzcfgvalidate tool and I saw that there were many "Error" and "Warning" messages with my VEs. So I used the "-r" switch to auto-repair my configs. But obviously there is a bug and this does not work. Sad

And it broke my configs (see the error messages about truncated values).

Now I have broken configuration for my VEs and I think the only way to correct it is to forget about vzcfgvalidate and correct them on my own?!

However, setting the values manually is very hard and complex. For example, I have many failcnt's and just setting the limits to a higher value does not help in many situations.

What's really missing in my opinion is an automatic tool that sets the UBC values based on failcnt values and other information. I thought vzcfgvalidate would do this.

Is there any other tool known who helps in assigning the resources?

divB
