Great, I have one more question. Is it possible to set the quota during run time from the host os ? Using virsh ? Thank you.

virsh schedinfo can both query and alter these cpu tunables, and that includes doing it while the guest is running.

I tried the virsh schedinfo. Here is the information regarding my libvirt :

[root@sbc11 ssubbiah]# virsh version
Compiled against library: libvir 0.9.4
Using library: libvir 0.9.4
Using API: QEMU 0.9.4
Running hypervisor: QEMU 0.12.1

When i use "[root@hgcc11 ssubbiah]# virsh schedinfo rubis_ws --cap 50" , I dont see the cap value being set and I am able to see only cpu shares.

schedinfo --cap is obsolete (it's xen-only).  Rather, you want:

virsh schedinfo domain

to list the current settings, and

virsh schedinfo domain --set vcpu_period $value --set vcpu_quota $value

I haven't used it myself; I'm only going off the documentation provided by Wen Congyang, who oversaw the addition of the features.
