-qt-user-state:0;">the driver supports vSwap AFAIK. You can set
RAM limits (soft, hard) and SWAP hard limit (soft is always 0).
Could you explain to me what you mean by vRaw?</p>

-qt-user-state:0;">I understand that vzctl provides a lot of
knobs to play with but since libvirt is supposed to be a common
management interface, I had to play by the libvirt rules. I
extended the libvirt XML syntax only as much as was needed for
supporting the amount of features that we use at the company. I
also didn't want break too many things and sticked with the
semantics that was already in libvirt for LXC.</p>

manage RAM and SWAP. All other UBC limits are set as
unrestricted.</p>
</blockquote>
<br>
You'd better also set some secondary UBCs (if those are not set
explicitly), same<br>
as vzctl does and as described at
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://openvz.org/VSwap#Implicit_UBC_parameters">http://openvz.org/VSwap#Implicit_UBC_parameters</a><br>
<br>
Those are lockedpages, oomguarpages, vmguarpages, and optionally
privvmpages.<br>

driver to support all the UBC limits but I don't want to divert
from the upstream libvirt domain file syntax too much.</p>

-qt-user-state:0;">Ploop is not supported as we don't use it in
the company. Most of the features that ploop provides can be
easily achieved with LVM/drbd.</p>
</blockquote>
<br>
I tend to disagree here.<br>
<br>
First, ploop works on top of ext4 filesystem, so it's way more
flexible. You just can't move an LVM partition to a different server
(in ploop case it's just scp).<br>
<br>
There is no online snapshot merging in LVM as far as I know.<br>
<br>
Finally, I can't see how DRBD can be a replacement for ploop copy.<br>
<br>
This is just from the top of my head, maybe there's something else<br>
as well (say I'm not sure how good is LVM online grow/shrink).<br>

margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;
-qt-user-state:0;"> However, unlike the UBC limits, there is
already a syntax for "mounting a file as a file system" in
libvirt, so implementing ploop might be possible.</p>
