[PVE-User] OOM Killer problem

[Falco Kleinschmidt]

I had the same problems regarding KVMs not running and I thought that
they were gone, but I had again some problems.

Yesterday I rebooted after an upgrade and now I am running VE 4.4-12 /
kernel 4.4.35-2-pve, hoping that no stopped KVMs will occure again.

I am using the following cronscript every minute to check if all KVMs
are running. If not, the script starts the KVM. Safed me some customers
calling.

#!/bin/bash
###
#If KVM machines are stopped, they will be started
###
for VM in `/usr/sbin/qm list | grep stopped | awk '{print $1}'`; do
  echo `date`" VM $VM is offline, starting..." >> /var/log/check-kvm.log
  /usr/sbin/qm start $VM
done
