    OpenVZ Error : Cannot allocate memory

    If you start receiving such type of error messages on VPS then you are running short of some of resources that are allocated to your VE, you can check which resource is causing problems by running following command from shell of VE you are facing problems with or from Node.

    HTML Code:
    root@master [/]# cat /proc/user_beancounters
    Version: 2.5

    check failcnt colum it will display number of failures due to inappropriate allocation of particular resource to VPS
    you can increase particular resource by editing configuration file for particular VE, you can find configuration fle at /etc/vz/conf/VEID.conf replace VEID with actual VE ID in our case it would be 110.conf, find resurce that is having maximum of failure count increase it to some higher extent and then restart VE.

    Or you can run following command to increase resource
    vzctl set <VEID> --<resource name> barrier:limit --save
    for eg.
    vzctl set 110 --privvmpage 107150:117150 --save

    To resolve this issue, you must check the resource usage of this VPS server. This can be done in two ways.
    Run the following command in hardware node to check the resource consumption.


    [root@vps1 ~]# vzctl exec 130 101 cat /proc/user_beancounters

    This command will execute a cat command on user_beancounters inside the VPS in question and gets back to us with the resource related information.

    For Virtuzzo or HyperVM VPS management control panel, login to them and check the QOS (Quality Of Service) page. It will show what is really going on with the VPS.
