Thanks for your feedback..<br><br>So if i set my VM to 8 GB, each proccess would use a max of 3 GB (even with PAE installed and selected on boot)?<br><br><br><br>Date: Tue, 14 Sep 2010 08:50:18 +0200<br>From: l.wandrebeck@gmail.com<br>To: centos@centos.org<br>CC: r_o_l_a_n_d@hotmail.com<br>Subject: Re: [CentOS] Centos Virtual Machine 32 bit with 8 GB ram ?<br><br><pre>On Tue, 14 Sep 2010 09:44:28 +0300<br>Roland RoLaNd <r_o_l_a_n_d@hotmail.com> wrote:<br> <br>> <br>> Hello,<br>> <br>> I have a centos 5.2 core 2 duo 3.0 GHZ with 2 GB ram which is working as a Virtual machine.<br>> i've just upgraded the hosting physical server from 32 GB to 64 GB of ram. which in turn, would require me to upgrade the VM to 8 GB.<br>> this is a 32 bit centos installation, would the system recognize and use the 8 GB? <br>Yes, using a PAE enabled kernel.
