Description Diego 2014-03-27 09:44:01 UTC
Description of problem:
Changing currently allocated memory in virt-manager-1.0.0-6.fc20.noarch changes correctly memory amount assigned to the guest (running "free" in the guest shows the desired memory amount) but is not updated correctly in virt-manager GUI (the "current allocation" displayed value in "Memory" section.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Manager on Fedora 20:
virt-manager-1.0.0-6.fc20.noarch
Host on Centos 6.5:
libvirt-0.10.2-29.el6_5.5.x86_64

How reproducible:
The problem is reproducible most of the times, expecially when expanding the amount of memory.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Change dinamically the amount of RAM currently allocated to a guest.

Actual results:
Host memory changes according to what the user set, but the value display is different from the actual value.

Expected results:
The GUI shows updated and correct values.

Additional info:
Disconnecting and reconnecting to the host hypervisor make the GUI update the values and show correct amount of memory.

Comment 1 Cole Robinson 2014-03-31 16:44:29 UTC
There's a domain memory change event, we just needed to hook an XML refresh into that. Fixed upstream now:
