Re: [Xen-devel] [PATCH] xenballoond (memory overcommit) scripts



Hello,

is it a good idea to run a memory balloon process in a domU? As you know
I've tested your xenbus selfballooning, I've thought this make more sense?

I thought it would be more secure and better for policing reasons to run
in dom0?

I've just tested the script and it works fine, now i will try it for a
short periode...

greetings
Viets
