14 | | Each cell represents a VM server. VM servers listed in the first column are always configured to create ''OpenVZ containers'' and those in later columns run ''xen virtual machines''. |
15 | | |
16 | | Each graph indicates the number of VMs running on that VM server over the last hour. Higher numbers indicate a heavier load. |
