VPSID CTID NPROC STATUS IP_ADDR HOSTNAME

As you see, the number is false for [[VEcontainer]] 1001 and 1003, but is correct for [[VEcontainer]] 1002 (14 = 12 + 1 (wc command) + 1 (ps command)).

The thing is that <tt>ps aux</tt> command outputs only "full-fledged" processes, but not threads. And `vzlist` command counts all processes in [[VEcontainer]] including threads. <tt>ps -eLf</tt> command allows you to see all processes:

[root@HN ~] # vzctl exec 1001 ps -elf eLf | wc -l

[root@HN ~] # vzctl exec 1002 ps -elf eLf | wc -l

[root@HN ~] # vzctl exec 1003 ps -elf eLf | wc -l
