I would like to find out memory configurations for Dom0 and Guest OS for 2 Guest OS with at least 4 GB of memory each. How much physical memory do I need? My calculation tells me I need 1 GB (Dom0) + 4 GB (Guest OS #1) + 4 GB (Guest OS #2). Xen boot options for mem=8G, dom0_mem=1G In the guest OS configuration files memory = 4096 # Shadow pagetable memory for the domain, in MB. # Should be at least 2KB per MB of domain memory, plus a few MB per vcpu. shadow_memory = 64 Do these configurations make sense?

Should I? Is there a reasonable default if absent from the configuration file?
