Thanks for the reply Daniel. Virsh dominfo dommand showing following results: Id: 32473 Name: vm1 UUID: f13bc513-15f2-1dd1-74f6-18c47931ece9 OS Type: exe State: running CPU(s): 1 Max memory: 5000000 kB Used memory: 5000000 kB Autostart: disable Though whatever services running on the domain, every time used memory is showing as 5000000 kB. Is that result is correct? Regards, Srikanth. -----Original Message----- From: Daniel P.

The virDomainGetInfo API / virhs dominfo command shows you the overall allocated memory. The dommemstats command gives you a finer breakdown of usage of that memory by the guest Daniel -- |: Red Hat, Engineering, London -o- http://people.redhat.com/berrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org -o- http://deltacloud.org :| |: http://autobuild.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| |: GnuPG: 7D3B9505 -o- F3C9 553F A1DA 4AC2 5648 23C1 B3DF F742 7D3B 9505 :| -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
