Hi There,

just a short question about dom0_mem: It would be nice for me if it was more 
flexible, i.e. run my WS in dom0 with all the RAM available and only reducing 
that RAM whenever I want to start a domU.

Is this supported?
Is this planned?

Thank you,

thats supported in xen3... just don't assign memory to your dom0 by don't 
using the dom0_mem boot parameter and your dom0 will use almost the complete 
available RAM.

If you start domU's, then the required amount of RAM is ballooned out of dom0 
and will be used in your domU automaticlly.

The minimum amount of RAM, which dom0 will keep is configured 
in /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp.

In basic form, yes. See dom0-min-mem in xend-config.sxp
