https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=337072 Summary: XEN Can't start a Domain: Error: (12, 'Cannot allocate memory') Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: x86 OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Xen AssignedTo: cgriffin@novell.com ReportedBy: franz.fleischmann@landshut.org QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Created an attachment (id=180802) --> (https://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=180802) Output from dmesg On our xen-server there was running during the last week no domain. Today I started a PVM-Domain without any problems. When I try to start a HVM-Domain i get the error-msg: Error: (12, 'Cannot allocate memory'). But this should not be possible. The system has 12 GB memory and the pvm-domain uses only 396 M. The free command in the dom0 shows more than 11 GB free: total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 12059648 797592 11262056 0 170612 277596 -/+ buffers/cache: 349384 11710264 Swap: 506036 0 506036 After reducing the memory in Dom0 to 1 GB with xm mem-set Domain-0 1024 i tried to start the PVM-domain again and the system freezes. After a reboot of the system there is no problem to start both PVM and HVM-domains. For better diagnostics i attached some files. Most important are the output from "xm desg" and the xend.log -- 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.
