Hi guys, We have a small test installation here running around 30 vms on 2 hosts. oVirt 4.2.5.3 The hosts each have 512 GB memory, and the vms are sized with 4-8 GB each. I have noticed that over the last months, the memory usage in the dashboard has been increasing and is now showing 946.8 GB used of 1007.2 GB. What can be causing this? TIA, -- -- Tony Albers Systems Architect Systems Director, National Cultural Heritage Cluster Royal Danish Library, Victor Albecks Vej 1, 8000 Aarhus C, Denmark. Tel: +45 2566 2383 / +45 8946 2316
Grab a shell on your hosts and check top memory use quick. Could be VDSMD, in which case restarting the process will give you a temp fix. If you’re running hyperconvered, check your gluster version, there was a leak in versions 3.12.7 - 3.1.12 or so, updating ovirt/gluster is the best fix for that.

That’s only reporting 42G available of your 512, ok but something still using it. Try sorting the top by memory %, should be ‘>’ while it’s running.

Yeah, you’re right about 400G, I dropped a digit reading it out of your top display. So what are you seeing in the dashboard, I’m not sure I understand the disconnect between the top you shared and what you’re seeing there. It shows lots more than 110G in use, I gather? Or are you seeing this on the hosts page per host mem use?

Rebooting a host doesn't help, (I've tried that earlier) the only thing that works is to stop all vm's, reboot all hosts at the same time and start vm's again. Then memory usage shown in the dashboard slowly increases over time again.

Hi guys,

Agree, looks like disk caching, which is considered in use but can be freed as things ask for it. What kind of storage are you using here? I checked my converged group, the GUI memory use looks like it includes the cache as well, just not as extreme as yours :) If you wanted to confirm, you could clear it with sync; echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches and you should get all the cache memory back without rebooting. Presumably, it’s all holding filesystem data for quick access, so not a terrible thing, just alarming to see 97% utilization. Unless it kicked off unneeded MOM runs if you’re using same page merging and ballooning, then its doing unneeded work and maybe slowing your VMs… You’d probably see it in top if this was the case, it’s fairly CPU intensive. Ultimately, you may want to file a bug/feature request to have the GUI differentiate cache from “regular’ in use memory for clarity.

Rebooting a host doesn't help, (I've tried that earlier) the only thing that works is to stop all vm's, reboot all hosts at the same time and start vm's again. Then memory usage shown in the dashboard slowly increases over time again.

Grab a shell on your hosts and check top memory use quick. Could be VDSMD, in which case restarting the process will give you a temp fix. If you’re running hyperconvered, check your gluster version, there was a leak in versions 3.12.7 - 3.1.12 or so, updating ovirt/gluster is the best fix for that.

Yup, doing the 3 > drop_cache is clearly freeing up the memory. I've filed bug 1659342 in rh bugzilla Thanks Darrell, have a nice weekend. /tony On Thu, 2018-12-13 at 10:54 -0600, Darrell Budic wrote:
Agree, looks like disk caching, which is considered in use but can be freed as things ask for it. What kind of storage are you using here?
I checked my converged group, the GUI memory use looks like it includes the cache as well, just not as extreme as yours :) If you wanted to confirm, you could clear it with
sync; echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
and you should get all the cache memory back without rebooting. Presumably, it’s all holding filesystem data for quick access, so not a terrible thing, just alarming to see 97% utilization. Unless it kicked off unneeded MOM runs if you’re using same page merging and ballooning, then its doing unneeded work and maybe slowing your VMs… You’d probably see it in top if this was the case, it’s fairly CPU intensive.
Ultimately, you may want to file a bug/feature request to have the GUI differentiate cache from “regular’ in use memory for clarity.

We have 2 hosts and 24 running vms, all vms are pretty small.
As you can see, top and the dashboard does not agree.
An interesting thing is that if I view the host itself in the engine, it says under "General" that Max free Memory for scheduling new VMs: 413360 MB
So maybe it's some sort of caching that's using the memory.

Yeah, you’re right about 400G, I dropped a digit reading it out of your top display.
So what are you seeing in the dashboard, I’m not sure I understand the disconnect between the top you shared and what you’re seeing there. It shows lots more than 110G in use, I gather? Or are you seeing this on the hosts page per host mem use?
