[Xen-devel] Xen 3.0.1 Error creating domain: (12, 'Cannot allocate memory')

[Peter <peter.spamcatcher@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi.  I have a domU that refuses to start up.  It reports an error 
allocating memory.  There appears to be sufficient memory in dom0 as 
well as on the host.  I can restart other domUs no problem.
To resolve the issue I'm having to restart the whole server.  Which is a 
bit disruptive.
Details follow.

Regards, Peter
