Hi Everyone,

We are using Open Nebula on Ubuntu 11.10. Our VM's usually never use a whole system in the same time. But when they are active they usually require huge amount of computational power.

OpenNebula has a protection from Overcommitment of memory and CPU. I have a question: How can I manually setup Overcommitment by factor 2 for CPU and Memory? Significant amount of memory is helpful for our calculations but all this extra memory is a caches. It means that nothing will be happen if Cache size will be decreased for the VM. The cache can be dynamically scale down by balloon driver which is a default for Libvirt and KVM in Ubuntu. It means that I absolutely sure that would like to over-commit memory. There are no problem for a processor too. Our calculations took usually several days and one day extra for one VM does not change anything. I already used these scheme with over-commitment on Proxmox and it works well.

Regards,
    Max
