That's a pretty big problem. Why is this marked as XFAIL? This should be failing, and needs to be fixed ASAP. When I define a KVM guest through the providers manually, I get a correctly-set memory value. Is this an error in the test?

I don't see that, and obviously if you're seeing it with a manual virsh define, then something else is broken. -- Dan Smith IBM Linux Technology Center Open Hypervisor Team email: danms(a)us.ibm.com
