Re: [ovirt-users] ksmd high cpu usage from almost a week with just one vm running
Hi, you can see all the relevant definitions in mom's ksm policy. The trigger to run ksm is defined here: https://github.com/oVirt/vdsm/blob/master/vdsm/mom.d/03-ksm.policy#L23 You can change this setting (in each host you have) to something that suits your load.

Re: [ovirt-users] ksmd high cpu usage from almost a week with just one vm running
Thanks Doron, Can you confirm this behaviour,i changed (defvar ksm_free_percent 0.10) and restarted vdsm and now ksmd is behaving normally.But i don't understand why its behaving aggressively when free RAM percentages is 22% even though its close to 20 :) Regards On Sun, Dec 7, 2014 at 6:13 PM, Doron Fediuck dfedi...@redhat.com wrote: Hi, you can see all the relevant definitions in mom's ksm policy.

Re: [ovirt-users] ksmd high cpu usage from almost a week with just one vm running
Hi, First of all you need to remember this is accounting all available memory cache included, so what you see as 22 may not be what mom is using. Additionally some of the calculations take time for ksm, so it takes time for everything to stabilize once you hit a peak. - Original Message - From: mad Engineer gmail.com To: Doron Fediuck Cc: Markus Stockhausen stockhau...@collogia.de, users ovirt.org, Martin Sivak msi...@redhat.com, Roy Golan rgo...@redhat.com Sent: Sunday, December 7, 2014 6:52:16 PM Subject: Re: [ovirt-users] ksmd high cpu usage from almost a week with just one vm running Thanks Doron, Can you confirm this behaviour,i changed (defvar ksm_free_percent 0.10) and restarted vdsm and now ksmd is behaving normally.But i don't understand why its behaving aggressively when free RAM percentages is 22% even though its close to 20 :) Regards On Sun, Dec 7, 2014 at 6:13 PM, Doron Fediuck wrote: Hi, you can see all the relevant definitions in mom's ksm policy.
