[Users] oVirt host requirement
Just checking to be sure that the Installation Guide doesn't have a typo, but do virtualization hosts really require 10 (ten) GB of RAM minimum, before even placing a VM onto it? (Page 8, Section 2.1.2.2) -- Andre Kostur
"Virtualization hosts must have at least 10 GB of RAM. A minimum of an additional 1 GB for each virtual machine is also recommended." Not the first complaint, maybe we should update those numbers. E.g. I 'only' have 8 GB of RAM in my hosts and works perfectly, I even run other jobs on my hosts. You need some hundred megabyte for the host OS plus the ram for your VMs. Laszlo ----- Original Message -----

The recommendation is wrong, (and in the downstream docs) realistically it should be 2GB minimum. ----- Original Message -----
