I don't mean to hijack the thread here, but unification as a way to
help his resource utilization, could someone please point me to a good
resource for unification?

I have searched the vserver wiki, but there doesn't really seem to be
anything on how to setup and use unification.  Also, does unification
change the upgrade/maintenance process?

Thanks
John

you should make sure that you utilize unification
in this case, as it will probably be the best shared
resource in your setup (only config files will differ)
so given the server is configured well, and all guests
are 'idle' you can probably put 300+ there

here some tips _for your_ setup:

 - make sure to use unification (saves disk space
   and most important memory for mappings and caches)
 - reduce the number of guest processes, maybe even
   to a single process (the VoIP app) plus a fake init
 - configure higher HZ values (1000Hz) disable
   preemption, get apic running, configure the hard
   cpu scheduler for timeslicing

HTH,
