[Bug 397890] New: Out of memory error ...
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=397890 Summary: Out of memory error ... Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Factory Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Xen AssignedTo: cgriffin@novell.com ReportedBy: mmeeks@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- I have a 1GB machine, and apparently DOM0 was using more than it's fair share; so I cranked it's memory usage down with virt-manager to try to make space for the 512Mb I need to install SLED10... Unfortunately, the virtual machine creation then got past the "Out of memory" type error dialog, and started to do it's stuff but then failed later with another memory error: "Error: I need 524800 KiB, but dom0_min_mem is 524288 and shrinking to 524288 KiB would leave only 492408 KiB free." I attach the debug log As you see in the screenshot the current allocation for DOM0 is 350Mb (apparently below the minimum that the other tool goes on about ;-) so if the bug is not in the installer, it is in the tool: how is it I can effectively lower the memory use below the minimum ? DOM0 reports: $ free total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 358400 334620 23780 0 4564 37608 -/+ buffers/cache: 292448 65952 Swap: 2097528 905676 1191852 which seems to reflect the desired setting: which should leave ample space to install and re-test bug 39747 [ though yet more memory is on it's way by snail mail ;-] HTH. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
