I am afraid this issue has nothing to do with Cloudstack. If VM "sees"
maximum memory size available instead of effective -- this is problem of
hypervisor and/or guest utilities. Do you have guest utilities that come
with XenServer version or older in your template?

Ok. After rebooting the instance still no change after disabling
globally. I modified all my templates to remove 'Dynamic Scalable',
then I have to shutdown every instance and unselect 'Dynamic Scalable',
then restart for it to be correct.
This may need to be looked at closer for a Windows/XenDesktop(XenApp)
environment as MS SQL will consume all the RAM windows sees.
My other question is why CCP 4.3 (which is certified for Citrix Ready
for IaaS for XD) didn't have this issue until I upgraded to 4.3.0.2 in
July. This feature was released in 4.2.....
Thanks for all the help.

Just funny that on CCP 4.3 it wasn't an issue and only after upgrading
to 4.3.0.2 and a host reboot did it change my instances.
This issue is that the instance below is a SQL server. As Windows see
32GB, it shows the used RAM in windows as 31.6GB. The Server only has
8GB. That is what really is the issue. Causing slowness for my users.
I have set 'enable.dynamic.scale.vm' to false and restarted
cloudstack-management. I will reboot an instance that is out of prod
and let you know the results.

Hello Todd,
If I understood you correctly, you wonder why you have static max as 4x
of the offering, isn't it? This article should answer your question:

Look chapter for XenServer changes. As it is stated there: static max =
f_min (4 * service_offering) / memory_overprovisioning_of_cluster

Just wondering if anyone has seen similar. I already have a case open.
But seeing if the forum has an answer?
Issue, Upgraded to CCP 4.3.0.2 back in July. Afterwards everything was
great. Hosts rebooted two weeks ago. Any instance built with a template
with Dynamic Scalable set to yes, shows in XenCenter as min/max memory
as what system offering is but has a Static Max of 4x the RAM.
Screen shot of instance built from template with Dynamic Scalable = yes

Now if I build a new w2012r2 template without Dynamic Scalable, it
works as it should. But I lose the ability to Dynamically scale.

also in XC

Anyone aware if this is fixed in CCP/ACS 4.5.1? Has anyone seen this?
The XenServer Hosts are patched through XS62ESP1027.
