Josh Harshman commented on CLOUDSTACK-8678: ------------------------------------------- Daan, What are your thoughts on the best approach? After some discussion Kevin and I came to the conclusion that it might be a bit easier to fix agent side, but might not be the best way to go about it. Server side might be a bit more complex for us to implement a fix due to the fact that while we know how CloudStack works with KVM, we are not as familiar with how CloudStack works with other hypervisors. If a server side fix is the way to go, some guidance on approach would be appreciated. > OOM Kills Guests > ---------------- > > Key: CLOUDSTACK-8678 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-8678 > Project: CloudStack > Issue Type: Bug > Security Level: Public(Anyone can view this level - this is the > default.) > Components: Hypervisor Controller, KVM > Affects Versions: 4.4.2 > Environment: Intel Xeon Quad Core CPU L5520 @ 2.27GHz > 98 GB RAM > Ubuntu 14.04 > Running Cloustack 4.4.2 > Reporter: Josh Harshman > Assignee: Daan Hoogland > Priority: Critical > > We have several KVM nodes running Cloudstack 4.4.2. Sometimes an instance > with X amount of RAM provisioned will be started on a host that has X+a small > amount of RAM free. The kernel OOM killer will eventually kill off the > instance. Has anyone else seen this behavior, is there a way to reserve RAM > for use by the host instead of by Cloudstack? Looking at the numbers in the > database and the logs, Cloudstack is trying to use 100% of the RAM on the > host. > Any thoughts would be appreciated. > Thank you, -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
