Hi all,

I'm playing with virsh, and I succeed to mange easily some KVM nodes.

But I have issues to size RAM of openvz guests.
virsh set by default the the memory to 256M on each guest instead of that I specify in the XML

I have to modify by end the variable PHYSPAGES on each /etc/vz/conf/id_of_my_vz.conf

Please follow the XML dump and the steps that I did.

Cheers,Aurelien

1) Define openvz guest domain 103

    #virsh -c openvz:///system define vztest.xml
    Domain 103 defined from vztest.xml

2) Start the guest
    #virsh -c openvz:///system start 103
    Domain 103 started

    #vzlist
          CTID      NPROC STATUS    IP_ADDR         HOSTNAME
           103         20 running   -               -

3) Check memory size vz guest 103

#vzctl enter 103
entered into CT 103
#root@test:/# free -m
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
