-------------------------------------------
Summary: Allow disabling balloon for overcommit in KVM
Key: CLOUDSTACK-5968
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-5968
Project: CloudStack
Issue Type: Improvement
Security Level: Public (Anyone can view this level - this is the default.)
Components: KVM
Affects Versions: 4.4.0
Reporter: Marcus Sorensen
Assignee: Marcus Sorensen
Fix For: 4.4.0
Current memory overcommit functionality doesn't allow overcommit without using
virtio-balloon to dynamically squeeze vms. It also requires an admin-provided
daemon to monitor and adjust currentMemory setting on vms. Without this,
overcommit simply divides the service offering ram by overcommit value and
that's all the VM sees. Allow for disabling virtio-balloon via agent.properties
so that memory overcommit will show guests their full service offering RAM, if
desired.
