Inas, I hadn't responded earlier because I don't run XCP, but...

It looks like you're trying to set memory to be 6gb, right? Are you
sure this is right and it shouldn't be instead...

xe vm-param-set uuid=$VM_UUID memory-static-max=6144
xe vm-param-set uuid=$VM_UUID memory-dynamic-max=6144

I know when I'm creating VMs, I have a _BAD_ habit of specify "8"
instead of "8192" for 8GB in memory lines.

If the memory-static-max argument is in MB and not GB, then you may
have the same problem. I had one VM where I specified 8MB and the VM
started but it look like it froze which could explain your issue.
