  Description     : Dynamically manage system resources on virtualization hosts

MOM is a policy-driven tool that can be used to manage overcommitment on
KVM hosts. Using libvirt, MOM keeps track of active virtual machines on
a host. At a regular collection interval, data is gathered about the
host and guests. Data can come from multiple sources (eg. the /proc
interface, libvirt API calls, a client program connected to a guest,
etc). Once collected, the data is organized for use by the policy
evaluation engine. When started, MOM accepts a user-supplied
overcommitment policy. This policy is regularly evaluated using the
latest collected data. In response to certain conditions, the policy may
trigger reconfiguration of the system’s overcommitment
mechanisms. Currently MOM supports control of memory ballooning and KSM
but the architecture is designed to accommodate new mechanisms such as
cgroups.
