Thread-topic: BKM for memory management

I would like to find out memory configurations for Dom0 and Guest OS for 2 Guest OS with at least 4 GB of memory each.

How much physical memory do I need? My calculation tells me I need 1 GB (Dom0) + 4 GB (Guest OS #1) + 4 GB (Guest OS #2).

Xen boot options for mem=8G, dom0_mem=1G

 

In the guest OS configuration files

memory = 4096

# Shadow pagetable memory for the domain, in MB.

# Should be at least 2KB per MB of domain memory, plus a few MB per vcpu.

shadow_memory = 64

 

Do these configurations make sense?

 

Sam
