try using 'dig' or 'host', at least the latte is definitely installed.

delete above 2 lines and keep the next one:

Yep. Keep that one.

No, not entirely: sshd will make a reverse lookup ("what is the hostname
of 10.x.x.x?") to put the host in the log and lets you wait until it is
either resolved or the timeout occurs.

It's still there - you maybe don't see it, but you mem is still there
and available.
You can try 'xm mem-set', but don't need to.
