A swapping host in most cases have a major impact on VM behavior.
So by default oVirt will not run a VM on a swapping host. this is highly unrecommended.
this is a protection mechanism if memory overcommit is overwhelming
ability to compensate via ksm (and later ballooning).
how much RAM on your host? how much vram (total ram allocated to VMs) on it?
