Need Clarification on VPS Specs

[Palooo 2009]

Hello,

I need to clear my doubt about the specification of the VPS i got.

Please see the screenshot below:

In the above screenshot, it's showing that the Dedicated RAM is 4 GB and Burstable RAM is 6 GB but it is showing only 4 GB RAM under Memory usage bar.

and here is another VPS:

In this case, it's showing that the Dedicated RAM is 768 MB and Burstable RAM is 1 GB and it is showing full 1 GB Ram i.e Burstable under the Memory usage bar.

AFAIK we can only use the memory (Ram) which shows under the Memory usage bar not more than that.

Please clarify me on this.

Regards
-Pal

You will have to ask your provider to explain what is actually been shown in the usage bar i.e. the actual RAM or the Burstable RAM. AFAIK, the actual RAM is shown under the usage bar. If the process on your VPS require more RAM than the actual limit, they can use up to Burstable limit, if enough RAM is available on the main node at that specific time.
