So is the CPU re-allocated to other virtual machines that need them?
In KVM, virtual CPUs are just threads; if a thread does not want to run, the Linux scheduler does not give it any CPU. If the virtual machine monitor you're using is QEMU, the virtual CPU threads of a suspended VM will be waiting on a condition variable until the VM is resumed.
I take it then that RAM and disk usage are not reallocated?
No. But RAM can be swapped out, for both suspended and running VMs. Paolo -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
