My presentation and first question - RAM limit 64000MB

Hello Everybody My name is Fagner Patrício and i am new in the list, I am from Brazil and I am a network admin of a public institution of my state. I have a first question, a few months ago i installed a oVirt enviroment and so far so good, but last week we received a big data application with big RAM needs, about 96GB. So i created a virtual machine with this RAM configuration, but when a start, it report a error, that my limit o RAM per machine is between 1024MB and 64000MB. How can i change this limits? My oVirt is version 3.3 of compatibility. -- Fagner Patrício João Pessoa - PB Brasil

Possibly stupid question: how much physical ram do you have on your oVirt Hypervisor? Gianluca

Hello Cecchi. I Have 192GB in my oVirt Hypervisor. 2014-05-13 12:57 GMT-03:00 Gianluca Cecchi <gianluca.cecchi@gmail.com>:

Could it be that for some reason the guest is configured as 32bit? Because in that case the limit should be indeed 64gb if guest is supporting pae, otherwise probably 4gb. How did you configure your guest os?

which version of 3.3? this should have been fixed in 3.3.2 http://www.ovirt.org/OVirt_3.3.2_release_notes BZ 1014952 - [admin portal] cannot add Windows VM with 512MB memory, or more than 64GB

Hello everybody!! Indeed it was a bug of the version 3.3.0 that i was using, today I update the oVirt engine to version 3.4.1 and the problem disappeared. Thank you all for the help. 2014-05-13 20:31 GMT-03:00 Itamar Heim <iheim@redhat.com>:
