Re: [libvirt-users] Dynamically setting permanent memory libvirt-lxc

I'm trying to permanently change memory allocation for a
libvirt-lxc domain. So far I tried changing memory in memory.limit_in_bytes under
/cgroup/memory/libvirt/lxc/<container>/. This didn't help. It appears that
libvirt is not reading changes in cgroup.
My requirements are
1) Be able to dynamically change memory of a LXC domain without reboot
2) The memory change must survive LXC domain reboot.
virsh memtune, virsh setmaxmem, and virsh setmem are the appropriate
tools to use. Changing things directly in cgroups goes behind libvirt's
back, while changing it through the libvirt API allows you to hot-plug
the changes as well as control whether the next boot will have the same
new limits.
