Thanks Leonard, Thanks for the immedite reply . apprecite. actually many post s say the PAE kernel required for addressing more than 4 gb ram . but since my server already detects 32 gb ram , detecting 64 also should not be an issue..
"many posts say" a lot of things. Either these posts are specifically talking about 32bit systems or they are wrong. With a 32bit integer you can only address 4gb of ram so a hack was devised to make it possible go beyond that limit called PAE. Since with 64bit you no longer have that problem PAE doesn't exist on a 64bit system.

but just wondering why??.
No idea but it has nothing to do with PAE. Can you post the output of "xm info"?
