Subject: [Xen-users] Minimal ram to use on Dom0

Hi all

  i have a rhel5 server with 3GB of RAM and 4 xen guests running:

   - 1 Windows 2003 + Citrix PS 4.5 with 1 GB
- 2 Rhel5 guests with cluster suite and GFS with 640 MB of ram in each one
   - 1 rhel5 guest with 512 MB of RAM

   Total: 2.816 MB of RAM

Dom0 "only have" 256 MB of ram. Is sufficient or do I need to assign more RAM on dom0? For guests, this ram is sufficient ... and I don't need to do migrations ...

You might need more memory in Dom0 if you're planning to use LVM snapshots and then using something like rsync to back them up to a remote server.
