How can it be that there is a failcnt for oomguarpages, although the

This is on Debian Squeeze with the OpenVZ Kernel shipped by Debian.

I can only highly recommend against using the debian openvz kernels. I always had stability problems with them and a few months ago I discovered a major bug ( http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=655385), causing the whole system to get instable/ freezed.

For a few months now I'm using the official rhel6 openvz kernels and convert them into debian packages as described here: http://wiki.openvz.org/Install_kernel_from_RPM_on_Debian_6.0 Since then I never had any problems again so far :)
