Hi,,
I am having trouble with my compute node that nova-compute and ovs process are being killed by OOM. I have alot memory available in system.
# free -g total used free shared buff/cache available Mem: 1006 121 881 0 2 879 Swap: 7 0 7
But I am seeing process are being killed in dmesg.

Any advice on how to fix this ? Also any best practices document on configuring memory optimizations in nova compute node.
