Cloudmin allows creation of VM with RAM > Maximum memory for Xen instances setting, then fails

Cloudmin allows you to create a VM with more memory than the "Maximum memory for Xen instances" setting, but creation subsequently fails with:

Registering Xen configuration file .. .. failed : WARNING: xend/xm is deprecated. Using config file "/etc/xen/es1.cfg". Error: memory_dynamic_max must be less than or equal to memory_static_max

Starting up new Xen instance .. .. failed to start :

Manually increasing the maxmem value in the VM configuration file solves the issue, but it seems Cloudmin should check whether memory > maxmem, and either set maxmem = memory or exit with an error and inform the user.

Closed (fixed)

Thanks for pointing this out - this will be fixed in the next Cloudmin release.
