Hi,
On a 4gb 64 bit centos kvm guest per libvirt
<memory>4194304</memory>
<currentMemory>4194304</currentMemory>
but in dmesg of the guest I find
Memory: 4039712k/5242880k available (2592k kernel code, 154076k
reserved, 1653k data, 224k init)
Why is dmesg reporting 5g of ram ? Or am I reading wrong ?
How much memory on the Host is necessary on the kvm host for this "4g"
machine in the worst case (I try to not overcommit for now). I want to
avoid the situation that this "4g" machine requires "5g".
A 4gb 32 bit machine is reporting expected values
Memory: 3102712k/4194304k available (2190k kernel code, 41592k reserved,
911k data, 228k init, 2228160k highmem)
All of the above lead to the following more generic question:
How many percent of the Host RAM may I safely give to guests (without
overcommiting) ?

Kind Regards, Markus Falb
