[FC22] testing oVirt 3.6.2 : Hot plug memory not working
Hi, I am using oVirt 3.6.2 on FC22 box, all-in-one installation, my purpose is to test it. I am using a simple Desktop : - one cpu core i5 3550 with 4 cores - 2x4 Go of RAM I installed a Centos 6x64 VM with all updates + ovirt guest agent. I tried to augment the memory from 1024 to 1536 (+512Mo) it didn't work I had to shutdown the VM for the change to take effect. Hot plug memory does it have something to do with the underneath hardware? or does it depend on the guest OS? or something else? Regards.

Try: 1. Look for memory that appears offline. Run this command to check the state of the memory: grep line /sys/devices/system/memory/*/state 2.

Hi again, There is no new memory banks created, example : before adding memory to the Cento7.2 VM I have 4 directories under /sys/devices/system/memory memory0 to memory3 and their status was online. I augmented the memory from 512 to 1024 the were no new memoryX added and I had the error mentioned above: VDSM Noveria command failed: unsupported configuration: unknown device type 'memory' Failed to hot set memory to VM ipaClient. Underlying error message: unsupported configuration: unknown device type 'memory' both for Centos6 and Centos7 I stopped the VM Centos7, I added augmented the memory again, then started the VM, now I have new memoryX directories under /sys/devices/system/memory memory4 to memory7 2016-02-01 15:17 GMT+01:00 Yaniv Dary <ydary@redhat.com>:
Try:
1. Look for memory that appears offline.
Run this command to check the state of the memory:

2. When memory appears offline, run this command to set it to online:
echo online >/sys/devices/system/memory/memory[number]/state
