I experienced similar issue on one of the VPSes I have with RoseHosting. I contacted their technical support and they fixed the issue for me and everything has been good since then.
Anyway, when I asked what was the problem, they said that it was related to the dcachesize limit which represents the maximum size of filesystem-related caches limit for my server, such as directory entry and inode caches.
As for the oomguarpages parameter, from the vzctl(8) man page:
Guarantees against OOM kill. Under this beancounter the kernel accounts the total amount of memory and swap space used by the container’s processes. The barrier of this parameter is the out-of-memory guarantee.
so, as I also experienced multiple OOM scenarios on one of my VPSes before I upgraded my RAM, I guess this is a limit which saves some processes of being killed by the kernel in OOM situations.
