What are Resource Control Parameters?

The system administrator can control the resources available to a virtual machine and Container through a set of resource management parameters. All these parameters can be set and configured as follows:

• For Containers, by manually editing the global (/etc/vz/vz.conf) and Container (/etc/vz/conf/CT_ID) configuration files or using the Parallels Server Bare Metal command-line utilities.
• For virtual machines, by manually editing virtual machine configuration files (/etc/vz/VM_Name.pvm/config.pvs) or using the Parallels Server Bare Metal command-line utilities.

The following sections describe in detail how to configure resource parameters for both virtual machines and Containers.
