Description of problem:
While in 

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualization/3.6/html-single/Release_Notes/index.html

we mention:

~~~
BZ#1201327

    Previously, the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager only allowed a maximum of 4000 GiB of memory per virtual machine. Now, the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager can configure up to 4TiB of memory per virtual machine.
~~~


in 
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualization/3.6/html-single/Technical_Reference/index.html#Hypervisor_Requirements

~~~
 A maximum of 2 TB of RAM is supported. 
~~~

To my understanding RHEL limits apply - but I might be wrong - which is currently 12 TiB

Please replace this text with these:
https://access.redhat.com/articles/rhel-limits
https://access.redhat.com/articles/rhel-kvm-limits

To the RHEL side of the docs, since we are bound by that.
