I also tried to decrease the memory for dom0 as advised on the list

something in the qemu-dm log file about -vcpu-avail option is invalid:

# cat /var/log/xen/qemu-dm-rhel5-32fv.log
domid: 1
qemu: the number of cpus is 1
/usr/lib64/xen/bin/qemu-dm: invalid option -- '-vcpu_avail'

Stale qemu-dm binary hanging around, perhaps. I find that kind of thing
happens when trying out different version sof Xen on a single test system.
Either your new qemu-dm binary did not get installed, or it did but in a
different location to the stale one, and it happens that the stale one
dominates.

In particular, Xen 3.4 qemu does not support the -vcpu_avail cmdline option,
but 4.0 and 4.1 (unstable) do. And 4.0/4.1 xend depends on that.

qemu-dm was at /usr/lib64/xen/bin/qemu-dm in 3.4 on 64-bit builds but for some reason it moved to /usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm in 4.0 and presumably 4.1.

Oh, ok, thanks Michael. This way I can now understand why is was not working with "/usr/lib64/xen/bin/qemu-dm" but it's working with just "qemu-dm" since "qemu-dm" makes the path of "/usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm". In 4.1 it's /usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm too. When I tried to list it using the `ps aux | grep qemu-dm` it was showing the difference here so if the path changed it makes sense now.

Thanks a lot,
Michal
