Re: [Xen-API] question about check VM host cpu and ram

[Olivier LAMBERT <lambert.olivier@xxxxxxxxx>]

Many thanks !

It's more clear for me now.
I've forgot the mid (what a shame :o )

But despite VM_metrics.get_record works, the current used memory is
"missing" (or not implemented). Damned :/
I've got :

VCPUs_params 
cpumap01,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31
cap 0
weight 256
last_updated 20090918T12:46:32
uuid 6af1f0db-ee19-bf94-efa4-ca021080b1e3
VCPUs_flags 0 blocked online
start_time 20090918T09:58:38
memory_actual 268435456
state blocked
VCPUs_utilisation 0 0.00016007062223236292
VCPUs_number 1
VCPUs_CPU 0 2

Is it "normal" ?

Thanks.
