Hi all,
So nobody has an idea why I can't have more than ~ 15,700 processes and threads as listed by the vzlist command on my machine:
[root@office-vm01]# vzlist
CTID NPROC STATUS IP_ADDR HOSTNAME
4001 3100 running 192.168.3.230 vdev-app01
4002 3101 running 192.168.3.234 vdev-app02
4003 3105 running 192.168.3.238 vdev-app03
4004 3100 running 192.168.3.242 vdev-app04
4005 3096 running 192.168.3.246 vdev-app05
4006 212 running 192.168.3.210 vdev-app06
4007 15 running 192.168.3.214 vdev-app07
4008 15 running 192.168.3.218 vdev-app08
4009 15 running 192.168.3.222 vdev-app09
4010 15 running 192.168.3.226 vdev-app10
without running into errors on the VEs and the host like:
[root@vdev-app06 /]# cat /proc/user_beancounters
-bash: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable
Can someone confirm that running more than ~16,000 processes and threads on a OpenVZ Host should be possible? Do I need to tweak my kernel in a special way to get around that limit?
I really don't want to switch to another virtualization framework only because I'm unable to utilize the full resources of my machine..
Thanks,
Markus
