Hi,
Thanks for the response. So after a little more digging, I find this in the xend error log
[2011-03-02 12:24:51 xend.XendDomainInfo 4324] ERROR (XendDomainInfo:219) Domain construction failed
Traceback (most recent call last):

hvm = hvm)
Error: (12, 'Cannot allocate memory')
Strange thing is that Dom0 has loads of memory free, as does the box. What I do find interesting is that the box is currently using 32GB of RAM …. I read somewhere that Xen only recognizes 32GB?

Subject: Re: [Xen-users] Max Number of Domains
Try this.

4.4. When I start a 9th domain using a loop-back file as its virtual disk why do I get "Error: vbd: Segment not found: uname=file:/path/to/image"?
By default, Linux only allows up to 8 loop-back devices to be active. You can increase this number by setting max_loop=32 (etc) on the domain 0 kernel command line in Grub. You also need to create new loop[n] device nodes in /dev.
