I have just tried to increase the memory of a DomU from 512 MB to 1024MB. I have several other DomUs already running with more than 512Mb, so I am puzzled. There is more than sufficient free RAM on the host Dom0 currently has 2.9G allocated to it. But I get the following error. If I change it back to 512 it starts just fine. I am running xen-3.3.0-3 on CentyOS5.2 x86_64 using the rpms from gitco. NB: I have always had the PCI: Fatal message on all my pv DomUs.

I probably needed to add all of the following to show why I think this is weird. I have 13 DomUs on this server, 1x Win2k3 HVM, 1x Fedora 8 and all the rest are Fedora 10, all running the same kernel 2.6.27.9-159.fc10.i686.PAE, the F10 DomUs have a mixture of 1 to 4 VCPUs and memory footprints from 128 - 1024 Mb. I built another DomU from the same template last night and set it to run with 1024 Mb and it ran just fine, no kernel panic. So, my question is, why does a DomU that is pretty much the same as all of the others panic when I change its memory parameters. NB: I am shutting down the DomU, updating the /etc/xen conf file and then doing an xm create. Boom And if I return to what it was it goes again. It their some residual data in the hypervisor or something ? -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-Glen and Rosanne Eustace, GodZone Internet Services, a division of AGRE Enterprises Ltd., P.O.
