Hi all, I want to be clear in details regarding Virtio balloon
Driver in RHEL 6.1 KVM hypervisor In documentations it is written that Virtio balloon driver
allow the guest to expand its memory dynamically . Now I want to know the meaning of dynamically … Whether it means 1)
We can change the memory of guest using libvirt API
only i.e by using virsh setmem command at runtime (VERIFIED) 2)
Or the guest itself can check that it is running out of
memory so it request host for some memory and when the host respond by giving
back memory it expands its memory size. Which is automation The 1st option is working fine Now can anyone tell me that memory expantion can be
done dynamically(point 2) also DISCLAIMER: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The contents of this e-mail and any attachment(s) are confidential and intended for the named recipient(s) only.
