I imagine I am overlooking something small and obvious, but I haven't been able to find it yet.
I have a bladecenter with 8 core nodes each with 32 gigs of ram, and a cobbler vm I am provisioning from. When I execute koan on a blade and point it to a system with 2048 megs of ram defined on my cobbler server it installs without problems, but when I point it to a system with 4096 megs of ram something add happens. The domain is created, the hard drive is set up, but the vm fails to start the install. I have gone into my ssytems and lowered the ram to 2048, and they work, then I raise the ram back up to 4096 and they don't work. I have been looking throught the documentation and the source code for koan but to no avail. Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this? Please tell me if you want any component of my configuration, json files, koan commands etc.
You didn't specify what virt type you were using, but it sounds like you need to be using a PAE kernel.
