hi
   I have centos 5.2 and 5.3 and xm mem-set does not seem to have any effect on 
HVM domains. (This works on my dev Fedora 8 machine though)

I have one HVM starting out at say 512.  I can not increase the memory or 
decrease the memory.

[root@qa10-cent-53 ~]# xm list
Name                                      ID Mem(MiB) VCPUs State   Time(s)
Domain-0                                   0      512     2 r-----   7158.4
RHEL5                                     19      519     1 -b----   1679.4
u-live                                    33      519     2 -b----    148.3

[root@qa10-cent-53 ~]# xm mem-set u-live 256

[root@qa10-cent-53 ~]# xm list
Name                                      ID Mem(MiB) VCPUs State   Time(s)
Domain-0                                   0      512     2 r-----   7163.1
RHEL5                                     19      519     1 -b----   1680.0
u-live                                    33      519     2 -b----    148.5


I found the following... 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=435208

So I manually reduced the dom0 to 512. The machine has 3G ram. 
But it did not help.


Any ideas. 

Thanks
