In this case, 'xm list' is lying to you -- it tells you what memory target the tools has asked the domU to aim for, not what the domU is currently using. :-) That's my guess anyway -- the free memory reported by 'xm info' is definitely the truth, so 'xm list' is lying and that's probably the reason why. Take a look in the domU and see what it thinks. Also in the domU, look at the contents of /proc/xen/balloon. -- Keir _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel |
