I’ve been fighting this for some time now, trying to get xen up and running so I can virtualize an old windows box and stuff it in my high-memory Linux system, but for the life of me I cannot get this thing to obey dom0_mem.
I’ve edited /etc/default/grub and ran sudo update-grub several times with differing settings, but it refuses to pick up the settings it appears. Here’s my default grub file: GRUB_DEFAULT="Xen 4.1-amd64" GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=10 GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=false GRUB_TIMEOUT=10 GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=`lsb_release -i -s 2> /dev/null || echo Debian` GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="" GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="apparmor=0" GRUB_CMDLINE_XEN_DEFAULT="dom0_mem=4096M,max:4096M dom0_max_vcpus=2 com1=115200,8n1 console=com1,vga" Am I missing something here? I can never get the memory I want out of these settings… it’s as if the kernel is completely ignoring them. I’ve tried with/without the max segment, and all sorts of searches have turned up nothing. Are there XAPI settings too? I thought that /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp wasn’t in play with XAPI, but I could modify that! Uh… sore forehead, anyone care to help me out here so I can issue the correct face palm to myself… I have to be missing something. - Brian Menges Principal Engineer, DevOps GoGrid | ServePath | ColoServe | UpStream Networks ________________________________ The information contained in this message, and any attachments, may contain confidential and legally privileged material.
