hi I have centos 5.2 and 5.3 and xm mem-set does not seem to have any effect on HVM domains. (This works on my dev Fedora 8 machine though) I have one HVM starting out at say 512. I can not increase the memory or decrease the memory. [root@qa10-cent-53 ~]# xm list Name ID Mem(MiB) VCPUs State Time(s) Domain-0 0 512 2 r----- 7158.4 RHEL5 19 519 1 -b---- 1679.4 u-live 33 519 2 -b---- 148.3 [root@qa10-cent-53 ~]# xm mem-set u-live 256 [root@qa10-cent-53 ~]# xm list Name ID Mem(MiB) VCPUs State Time(s) Domain-0 0 512 2 r----- 7163.1 RHEL5 19 519 1 -b---- 1680.0 u-live 33 519 2 -b---- 148.5 I found the following... https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=435208 So I manually reduced the dom0 to 512. The machine has 3G ram. But it did not help. Any ideas.
