Xen devel - Feb 2004 - Out of memory during Domain creation

Is there any way to detect  that Xen is out of memory when it creates a
domain?  I just spent quick a bit of time rebooting Xen to try to figure out
what I was doing wrong, and, in the end, it was an out-of-memory error.  

I''d love to hack the xc_dom_create.py to report this error more
explicitly
if there is a mechanism for this.

Thanks,

Charlie

Apologies -- we''re aware of this but haven''t had time to do a
fix. The dom0_op returns ENOMEM, but somewhere along the line
this error code is getting dropped. We should probably hack the
python-C interface to generate an exception rather than return an
error code.

Patches gratefully received ;-)

Cheers,
Ian
