Hello listmates,

Let's say I've got a machine with 1 GB of RAM and I want to host 3 512
MB virtual machines on it? Is that possible - i.e., is it possible to
force Xen to use swap and pass it off as RAM to the VM's? I know it is
slow and inefficient but for the purposes of testing - is that
possible?

Thanks.

Boris.
