[ovirt-users] Re: HostedEngine add more RAM

Which oVirt version are you using? From 4.2 you don't need to wait, you should be able to update the HE memory via UI: 1. Enable global maintenance 2. Change HE VM memory via UI 3. On the HE, run: # hosted-engine --vm-shutdown 4. Wait for HE VM to be down: # hosted-engine --vm-status 5. Start HE VM: # hosted-engine --vm-start 6.
