vps ram
Hi,
I have a question my ram seems to be depleted it says:
Memory available: 615 MB
But my server came with 2048 here are the specs
Two full, dedicated HT CPU cores
2048 MB of RAM
200 GB of hard drive space
2000 GB of InterNAP bandwidth transfer
I restarted the machine and it gave some ram back (it runs game servers) only a few people on there and uses 5% CPU

It's probably oversold.

Do you have Linux? If so, please give the output of the command:
free -m
and
cat /proc/meminfo

Hi
If its xen then i'd complain. if its openVZ then you may have burst RAM to 2 gig but not all the time.
thanks

There's no way to tell that it is oversold simply by a single "memory available" number.
He could very well be using 1433 MB of memory and has 615 MB free.

I've had a lot of budget VPS's in the past 2 years, most with 512MB ram and 1 with 256MB Ram, but none of them ever filled up the spare memory for cache, i.e. they would use approx 140MB of ram for the months they were up.
My current VPS has 600MB and within a few hours filled up the memory (480+ for cache)....I was surprised to see this as i'd had for my previous VPS's.
All OpenVZ anybody know why?

Please send the output of cat /proc/meminfo and then type top and copy/past the top three lines of output from that command so that we can have a look at them.
This likely indicates that your 'used' RAM was actually file system cache, or copies of frequently used files that are stored in RAM to speed up performance. FS cache will be given back to programs as needed so it's nothing to worry about.

I'm running windows 2003 with a specially-optimized version of Xen for virtualization
game servers ran on the machine; counter strike source and tf2. I also use a customized control panel provided from the seller, where I got the info from.Last edited by mattb6689; 08-23-2011 at 09:02 PM.
