[Vserver] Basic resource limits for a vserver

2005-12-11 Thread Tor Rune Skoglund
Hi List!

Anyone care to share their thoughts on how to limit the 
reources for a virtual server in the best way.

My requirements basically are the following:

- No single vserver should be allowed to bring the 
  other vservers and the host down. (Given that the
  other vservers are behaving properly.)
- Each vserver should be allowed to use at much 
  as available of the system resources as long as
  the other vservers and the host do not suffer
  noticeably from this.
- The host should hopefully never be brought down, and
  should always reply easily to ssh administration logins
  and commands.
- Disk resources are not important in this setup. (Have
  lotsa disk space now, and vservers on separate partitions.)

Any suggestions of limits settings for the vservers to 
achieve this?

Best regards,
Tor Rune Skoglund

I'd give about 50-80% of your resources to
each guest, which should assure that you can
still do something (with the remaining 20%)
if a guest starts to act nasty ...
