Ram usage?
I've been testing Proxmox on a 4GB server. I made 2 VMs with these settings:
1GB min, 2GB max
40GB HDD
2 Cores
Windows 2012 Server
512MB min 1.5GB Max
30GB HDD
1 Core
Windows 2012 Server
While them both installing, my ram usage went up to 4GB Ram and 1450MB Swap. How did this happen? The 2 servers didn't even use all of their ram.
Does the memory multiply or something?
Please help,
Thanks

How are you measuring your memory usage? Allocated memory is not the same as assigned memory.
With the command "htop". The memory bar was all green..
But it had something to do with the memory sharing i used.. By setting a fixed amount (for example) of 2GB it will always use 2GB instead of 3.5GB.
I still would like to know why it used so much memory
If you need to ask how deep the hole is then you probably missed this thread too.
No, it was because OVH's virtual network is weird
