A better approach would be to use a while read loop instead:
Code:
while read queue size
do
  ...
done < $configfile

Instead of
Code:
for queue in `cat ${configfile}|cut -d ' ' -f1`
do
  ...
  size=`cat ${configfile}|grep "$queue"|cut -d " " -f2`
  ...
done

vzcfgvalidate

vzcfgvalidate(8)						    Containers							  vzcfgvalidate(8)

NAME

       vzcfgvalidate - validate a container configuration file

SYNOPSIS

       vzcfgvalidate [-r] [-i] [-v yes|no] configfile

DESCRIPTION

       This  utility  checks  validity	of  resource control parameters in a container configuration file configfile. Some of the User Beancounter
       parameters have interdependencies, and if those are not met, configuration is inconsistent. The utility finds and reports such inconsisten-
       cies.

       There are three severity levels in the output: Error, Warning, and Recommendation.

OPTIONS

       -r     Repair mode (corrects configfile).

       -i     Interactive repair mode.

       -v yes|no
	      Whether  to  treat  configfile  as VSwap enabled configuration.  Default is auto-detect by checking if physpages.limit is not set to
	      unlimited; this option overrides the auto-detection.

EXIT STATUS

       Normally, exit status is 0. On program execution error, exit status is 1.  If the validation fails, exit status is 2.
