We had this discussion at the Ops Mid-Cycle meetup. I think the general consensus was 0.9 for memory. if you're running Ceph OSD's on the node you'll almost certainly want to reserve more than a gig for it and the OS. for CPU there was a wide range of ideas and it mainly depended on use-case. If

Just a general question: what kind of over commit ratios do people normally run in production with? We currently run 2 for cpu and 1 for memory (with some held back for OS/ceph) i.e.: default['bcpc']['nova']['ram_allocation_ratio'] = 1.0 default['bcpc']['nova']['reserved_host_memory_mb'] = 1024
