[Xen-fr] Re: [Xen-users] How can we increase de maximum memory for a domU

[Rachid Abdoun <rachid.abdoun@xxxxxxxxxx>]

But when you execute xentop (xen 3.0.2) you can see a column named  
"MAXMEM" and this value is greate than the value fixed in the conf  
file...
What does mean this option (if there is enough memory and a domU need  
more memory, that's mean the domU can use more memory that the memory  
assigned by the conf file??? ) ?  How can we adjuste it?
