libvirt users - Mar 2013 - Check memory inside a container

Hi all,

I'm new to LXC and libvirt. I have created a LXC container using libvirt.
In domain XML file I have mentioned "memory" and "current
memory" as 256
MB.

Now I want to check the memory inside the container, but whenever I run top
command or try to cat /proc/meminfo, it shows host machine's memory which
is 3GB.

So is there any command by which I can check containers memory?

Regards,
Saurabh Deochake.

You could use virsh commands such as dominfo or memtune.

virsh --connect lxc:// dominfo <vm-id>
