I'm wondering if anyone could point me to a tutorial on how to oversell with Openvz? I don't want to oversell too much, I'd just like to squeeze a little more out of my box. Thanks in advance.

its fairly simple.... sell more resources than you have; hope nobody actually uses them.

You can do overselling, but don't go out of your mind. Overselling can be done in a responsable way if you do active monitorization. But i wouldn't recommend you.

I've actually changed my mind over night. I think I'll just give people what they paid for and forgot making a few extra dollars. Thanks for the replies though.

How about.... Setting your costs right rather than trying to demolish real companies providing the full amount that is paid for? Might work better, anyone telling you how to or even saying it is perfectly fine to do it needs a good visit to the doctors

You can oversell, but not too much as if you do high rates and someone use your host for hot site, it may causes you problems and usually crashes.
