[PVE-User] page allocation failure and virtio_balloon ...

[Marco Gaiarin]

I've optimized memory management in a cluster i manage, defining for some
VMs a min/max memory, and of course installing ballooning device.

As a start i've setup min memory one half of the max memory, and i'm adding
a GB of RAM one by one, but still i catch something some PAF in the VM:

It is normal? There's something that i've not understood?


Thanks.


PS: phisical PVE node have free ram, it is currently about 80% of RAM (64GB
    total, so 12 free)
