Wow, that's a hell lot of RAM!

zhuanyi

Just got this on one of my VPS, which should come with 512MB of RAM:

free -m total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 4194303 21 4194282 0 0 13 -/+ buffers/cache: 7 4194296 Swap: 0 0 0

Now I am thinking how I should make use of it haha.

4gb?

If I do -m the output should be in MB right? So it is actually 4TB?

Patrick

@zhuanyi It should but something's not right lol

Maybe your motherboard grew a ton of RAM slots. :P

rkan

Maybe try htop or something? :P

Is it from Wizzsolutions?

run minecraft.

Someone migrated from EL5 to EL6 node and did not fix the memory bug

Nah, don't bother to spend money with them, had a pre-sales chat with those guys and the guy just disappeared half-way through the chat, LOL

I'm not sure, it's a little borderline, but you might manage to run a 2 slot Minecraft server. You might run out of memory though, so be careful!

just like my Volumedrive VPS..it's the USD4.95...

By any chance is the control panel SolusVM? Ive seen something similar to this before, they needed to reapply the 'resources' in the admin cp.

There is a bug with OpenVZ/vePortal where the 'guaranteed' RAM is higher than the 'burstable' RAM (despite us setting it correctly). This causes the VPS to display all of the host's RAM as available. It's just a display bug though: any attempt to use RAM beyond the 'burstable' limit results in an OOM error, as expected. (We can manually reset the 'guaranteed' RAM if the incorrect display causes issues.)

I'm pretty sure it's more an OVZ thing than vePortal.

I get this whenever I migrate between EL5 and EL6, doesn't matter how much ram is in teh host, always displays 8tb for the VPS til I reset the thing.

I haven't really played with EL6 but when I did a while ago it was to do with disabling VSWAP in SolusVM but not on the VM's so it gave them all 8TB ram.

Have you tried using the ram? hehe

I got a VPS got this bug, it's just a number because I can't use more RAM I allocated :D Reported to the provider but they didn't care :\

Don't really bother...I know it is a bug/system error but it is just fun to see this :)

jcaleb

question, can you use those RAM? or no?

zhuanyi

@jcaleb said: question, can you use those RAM? or no?

I didn't bother to try as I have some backups running off that vps, but I don't think so

jcaleb

ohhh so just bug on display memory, but still 512mb limitation right?

zhuanyi

I guess so sir :)

bdtech

I'm fairly certain he can not use 4tb of ram here, lol
