im running gentoo 2.6.20 with vserver 2.2.0-r1 1223887649 M * ghislainocfs21 do you created the files in the etc/vservers directory ? 1223887729 M * ghislainocfs21 if you 'hot add' them this will not survive a restart, you have to create the config files for this 1223888647 M * joe_mp i have created the files (dev, ip, prefix) in /etc/vservers//interfaces/2/, is this what ur mean ? 1223888654 M * ghislainocfs21 yes 1223888699 M * joe_mp yes i did and restarted the guest, but the interface isnt created 1223888713 M * ghislainocfs21 hum 1223888727 M * ghislainocfs21 can you give details about the interface you have and want to bring up ? 1223888783 M * joe_mp i have a server with a main ip and a subnet and wanted to give 2 ips of the subnet to the guest 1223888817 M * joe_mp so the first and second are in the same subnet only the ip self is different 1223888859 M * ghislainocfs21 ok so you have an nodev file, an ip file and a name file in interface2 ? 1223888885 M * ghislainocfs21 this is not a real interface 1223888886 M * joe_mp and another wuestion is: is my vserver maybe a bit old and should i update to 2.2.07 ? 1223888909 M * ghislainocfs21 oh you use an 2.0 ? 1223888926 M * joe_mp no i created the files dev, ip and prefix there 1223888946 M * joe_mp yes my installation is from december last year 1223888954 M * ghislainocfs21 ok, add a name file with for exemple teh number 2 in it only 1223888992 M * ghislainocfs21 and restart the vserver 1223889005 M * joe_mp ok will try but for the first interface there are no such file 1223889056 M * ghislainocfs21 yes but the interface is not configured on the host at all ? 1223889212 M * joe_mp yes, the main host have oly the main ip, no ips from the subnet 1223889245 M * ghislainocfs21 the issue is that you give no 'name' i think 1223889258 M * ghislainocfs21 eth0 is allready existing you have to create a eth0:2 1223889286 M * ghislainocfs21 so just create a 'name' file in the interface/2 with '2' in it and try to restart 1223889343 M * joe_mp ok i will try it, unfortunatelly i cant restart the server during working hours, so have to wait until the evening, but thx for the hint so far. i will be here tomorrow and report :-) 1223889397 M * Punkie you don't need file "name", but if yout don't have it, you can't see your IP adress by command "ifconfig" try command "ip a s" (from iproute) 1223889472 M * joe_mp ip a s also only reporting eth0 and tap0 1223889595 M * Punkie and there is no 2 IP addresses on one interface? 1223889712 M * joe_mp no only the first one is attached 1223890210 M * joe_mp i see gentoo offers vserver 2.2.0.6 meanwhile. is there a good reason to update from 2.2.0-r1 to 2.2.0.6 ? 1223891233 J * tramjoe_merin ~tramjoe@193.41.238.151 1223891391 N * Bertl_zZ Bertl 1223891397 M * Bertl morning folks! 1223891600 M * sid3windr heya Bertl 1223891833 M * ghislainocfs21 hi bertl 1223892307 M * Bertl ah, 2.6.27 is out :) 1223892853 M * joe_mp i took a look at the change log and see that there many fixes for proc and and also for dm that im using very extensiv, but evmsn was not working so far. so it seems that i really should go for an update argh :-( 1223893281 M * Bertl hmm?

For guests the risk is lower as they don't need to run as many scripts to start and don't need to initialize hardware / networking 1223897104 M * PowerKe also, worst case you can just chroot to the guest and fix it (haven't had problems with it yet though) 1223897145 M * PowerKe So for now I just run baselayout-1 on the host and baselayout-2 on guests 1223897280 M * joe_mp yeah, but the reason for me to update is that evms isn't working with my configuration now and also new network devices arent available on the guest. i guess the problem is connected to the proc and udev, where the new versions have some fixes for 1223897308 M * joe_mp are u using lvm on ur systems ?

1223935910 M * daniel_hozac no. 1223936001 Q * esa` Ping timeout: 480 seconds 1223936168 M * almak Is the limitation due to feature not implementated by vserver or limitation of linux 1223936223 M * daniel_hozac memory reservations are _really_ hard. 1223936231 M * daniel_hozac but i believe mainline is slowly getting there. 1223936272 M * almak I see. 1223936984 M * almak So, this work is dependent on Linux development no vserver work? 1223937123 M * daniel_hozac yes. 1223937405 M * almak OK. Different question. I enabled memory limit on a vserver context with swapping turned on. I have selected the AS value as limit, since RSS does not allow vserver context to be > physical memory. I am seeing pretty large AS numbers even if I trim down my application to run within physical memory. Is it possible to limit memory (not using RSS) when swapping is turned on? 1223937685 M * Bertl what do you want to limit? 1223937776 M * almak Essentially, total memory used by an application. So that another application can have a certain amount of virtual memroy reserved. 1223937794 M * almak application = vserver-context 1223937841 M * Bertl so, total memory is sum over virtual memory for you? 1223937896 M * almak total memory is sum of memory used by all processes inside a vserver context 1223937912 Q * joe_mp_ Read error: Connection reset by peer 1223937913 M * Bertl please define memory :) 1223937931 M * almak Physical ram + swap 1223937973 M * Bertl there is no such limit atm 1223938008 M * almak So that means there is no memory limitation when swap is enabled. 1223938019 M * Bertl well, yes, but only on rss 1223938026 M * almak OK. 1223938038 M * Bertl which is actually the only thing which you probably care about anyway 1223938061 M * almak Is there any plan to implement virtual memory limit in the forseeable future? 1223938089 M * Bertl virtual memory is something completely different, and that is limited via the AS (address space) limits 1223938121 M * Bertl swap + ram is something not very natural to linux 1223938161 M * Bertl although at some point, we might account the swap pages too 1223938189 M * almak Let me rephrase, is there any plan to implement swap+ram limit? 1223938228 M * Bertl not atm, and not without good reason (from Linux-VServer), but IIRC, mainline is working on something in this regard 1223938277 M * almak OK. 1223938378 M * almak Actually it will be good to account for swap pages, since using VIRT_MEM, the swap page value inside context is very different from actual usage. 1223938535 Q * mattzerah charon.oftc.net scorpio.oftc.net 1223938539 Q * geb Remote host closed the connection 1223938705 Q * hparker Quit: Quit 1223938708 M * Bertl almak: well, if overall system performance is your main concern, you don't want to force any swapping unless it is absolutely necessary 1223938750 M * Bertl and there is a natural limit for the swap space anyway, so you won't go above that either 1223938785 M * Bertl the swap/mem values VIRT_MEM shows are for applications (inside guests), and users which would like to see a swap :) 1223938842 J * mattzerah ~matt@pool1-180.dyn.winshop.com.au 1223939032 Q * dowdle Remote host closed the connection 1223939057 M * almak What I would like are 1) ability to protect the hostOS from memory hog Vserver contexts. 2) I have encountered some apps that has a process monitoring swap usage, with VIRT_MEM turned on, that code will not work. 1223939182 M * Bertl well, first, a limit on RSS and AS will block a memory hog efficiently 1223939207 M * Bertl second, what is the purpose of monitoring the swap space in a guest? 1223939226 M * Bertl and finally, why would it fail with VIRT_MEM? 1223939307 J * hparker ~hparker@linux.homershut.net 1223939336 J * esa bip@62.123.8.3 1223939611 M * almak Looks like there is some code that can do some throttling when swap space gets low.

I see what you mean. 1223941078 M * almak What will be display as swap if, no memory limit is applied? 1223941135 M * Bertl IIRC, if there are no limits, it will show the host values 1223941246 M * almak That's good.
