RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
Description of problem:
In
http://documentation-stage.bne.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6-Beta/html/Hypervisor_Deployment_Guide/References_RHEL_6_RHEVH_Support_Limits_Guests.html
2.2. Guest Requirements and Support Limits
RAM Part
Actual results:
RAM Part
A maximum of 4 GB of virtualized RAM per 32 bit guest is supported. Note that not all 32 bit operating systems are able to register an entire 4 GB of RAM.
Expected results:
About Max support virtualized RAM size per 32 bit guest is more than 4G,it's not static,it's depend on guest itself.for example,about rhel6.2-32 bit guest,I tried install it with 8G using rhevm-3.0.0_0001-40.el6.x86_64.it works.
Additional info:
32-bit guest without Physical Address Extension (PAE) support will just show <= 4
GB. with Physical Address Extension (PAE) support will show more than 4G.This
is a hardware limitation, and not a KVM or rhel-m limitation. Max support
virtualized RAM size per 32 bit guest should depend on guest itself
