[Fedora-xen] Error message about memory on xm create
<div>I have been running xen for about a week on a FC5 host running a FC5 guest with great sucess. I just did a "yum update" on the host system and when I try to start the guest I now see this:</div> <div> </div> <div>[root@localhost xen]# xm create -c WebServer1<BR>Using config file "WebServer1".<BR>Going to boot Fedora Core (2.6.16-1.2096_FC5xenU)<BR> kernel: /vmlinuz-2.6.16-1.2096_FC5xenU<BR> initrd: /initrd-2.6.16-1.2096_FC5xenU.img<BR>Error: Error creating domain: I need 513 MiB, but dom0_min_mem is 256 and shrinking to 256 MiB would leave only 2780 MiB free.<BR></div> <div> </div> <div>I am not really sure if this error message make sense, if I have 2780 I should have more then enough for 513 for a guest OS ... am I reading this right? Any ideas?</div> <div> </div> <div>I have tried a "xm mem-set Domain-0 1024" to see if it made a difference, but it didn''t.</div> <div> </div> <div>Thanks, </div> <div>-Bob </div>
