If they are altered at run time > without these tools, it can lead to unstable behavior for vm and potential > crash. Both for memory dynamic scaling and over provisioning this is > required. > So we need to be able to ensure whether xstools are installed on the template > based on the user inputs while registering the template and use the same to > set different memory/cpu values to make dynamic scaling work. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
