Thank you. This would be specified on the "kernel" line, correct? Also, do you have any suggestions as to what a good value may be for a machine running 15 domU's? Is there a general "rule-of-thumb" that one could use for this setting based on a 'per domU' basis?
Thanks, Brian

A little-known fact about PAE Xen is that you really want to use the lowmem_emergency_pool boot parameter.
e.g., lowmem_emegency_pool=16M
Each megabyte of emergency pool will allow you to guarantee to be able
to support 256 processes (counted across all VMs that you are running). So the above value would be good for 4096 processes. You'll have to decide what you need to set that parameter to.
