I have a xen server setup that I want to install a lot of vms on if possible. The vms will have no utilization for the most part; and brief utilization when active. The server has 2GB of RAM. We were running into a problem were the dom0 would not let us add anymore vms because we were out of physical memory. I have started to read about memory ballooning and hoping someone could point me

...hought this should be a simple feature, however we did not find any fitting solution. We use Xen 4.2.1 with xl toolstack. The idea is to use ballooning to dynamically (and automatically) change physical memory available to the domUs according to their memory needs. There was something called "xenballoond" for linux guests before "tmem" was integrated, and this seems to be exactly what we're looking for, except that we need it for windows domUs. Is there really no such thing for windows guests, or are we just too stupid to find it? We would be happy about any hints. If there rea...
