Hello!
I'm experiencing strange issue - cannot start KVM guest on machine
under 2.6.32 openvz kernel. Booting into kernel 4.9 on the same
system, works perfectly okay. Error message:

root at nekotaz:~# virsh start debian-8-jessie-amd64-01
error: Failed to start domain debian-8-jessie-amd64-01
error: internal error: qemu unexpectedly closed the monitor:

beancounters for host node shows 0 overruns (fail counter). Something
else is limiting, struggle to find what is it. Advises are appreciated
.
