Hows this for the setmem virsh text? setmem domain-id new-allocation Immediately change the current memory allocation for an active guest domain. The new-allocation value is in kilobytes, and will be rejected if the hypervisor can't support the given memory allocation. For vSphere/ESX, the new-allocation value must be a multiple of megabytes (ie. 2048 for 2GB), otherwise the hypervisor will reject it.
