[xen-tools-discuss] issues with xen-tools 4.2.1 setting value of ram in guest config higher then assigned in xen-tools config

[Jonathan Aquilina]

Hey guys im having an issue with xen-tools 4.2.1 that when i create a 
guest with 2gb of ram or more it seems that the scripts set the guest 
config to have a larger amount of ram then i originally specified in the 
xen-tools config any ideas?

im on debian squeeze

in the xen-tools config i have specified the following

size   = 100Gb      # Disk image size.
memory = 2048Gb    # Memory size
swap   = 4096Mb    # Swap size
# noswap = 1      # Don't use swap at all for the new system.
fs     = ext3     # use the EXT3 filesystem for the disk image.
dist   = `xt-guess-suite-and-mirror --suite` # Default distribution to 
install.
image  = full   # Specify sparse vs. full disk images.

now in the guest configuration file it shows the following

memory      = '2097152'

changing the value above fixes the problem but is this a known bug with 
4.2.1? and if so is there something ic an do to fix the issue as well as 
provide a patch for the devs of xen-tools to patch 4.2.1?
