Recently I had a problem where I thought my domU config files had been removed
and I wanted to adjust the perams so I created a new one with the values I
wanted.
[root@xen02 ~]# cat /etc/xen/max02
name = "max01"
maxmem = 2500
memory = 2200
vcpus = 4
builder = "hvm"
kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader"
boot = "c"
pae = 1
acpi = 1
apic = 1
on_poweroff = "destroy"
on_reboot = "restart"
on_crash = "restart"
device_model = "/usr/lib64/xen/bin/qemu-dm"
sdl = 0
vnc = 1
vncunused = 1
disk = [ "file:/home/virt/max02,hda,w" ]
serial = "pty"
But if I restart or even shutdown the domain and recreate it still uses the
values listed below. I have also tried xm vcpu-set and xm mem-set to get the
values I want with no luck.
So where is xen storring these settings? and how can I adjust them. I would like
to have access to more memory and all 4 cores in a domain.
Thanks in advance,
Erin

Also, make sure xm list doesn''t still show max02 when shutdown. If it does, do an ''xm delete max02'', then re-create w/ your new config. _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
I had problems finding the config... then I found virsh -> dumpxml (machine) I did have the file location but can''t find it. I''ve just been doing: dumpxml test1 ( copy output to an xml file ) undefine test1 define test1.xml Michael jim burns wrote:> On Friday June 06 2008 09:43:51 pm Eredicator X wrote: > >> Recently I had a problem where I thought my domU config files had been >> removed and I wanted to adjust the perams so I created a new one with the >> values I wanted. >> >> [root@xen02 ~]# cat /etc/xen/max02 >> name = "max01" >> > [...] > >> But if I restart or even shutdown the domain and recreate it still uses the >> values listed below.
