[Issue] - Health Checker - Memory Size / Capacity

[katamadone]

Provide Version Number
26.03.12.1424

Describe the issue
Health Checker is telling me I'm using 1GB but its ~ 26GB

Expected behavior
Should detect 26GB

Script Output
Physical Memory: 1 GB
Warning: We recommend for the best performance to have a minimum of 128GB of RAM installed on the machine.

Additional context
Seems to be related to QEMU / Virtualization. Looks like the Capacity

Health Checker is telling me I'm using 1GB, but in the XML its:
27911188480
Helpful outputs?

Looks like the Capacity shows the 1GB with setting a "start ram" configuration. Altough I'm not sure if it's correct because I set the minimal to 26624. I think this should flow into HealthChecker like the Dynamic Memory on VMware.
I'm not sure, which Value would be the best to get, but maybe we should use the TotalPhysical Memory and warn about a dynamic setting.

Sure. Already sent with the issue number in the subject.

I am not sure what QEMU is, but this is what I found: https://www.qemu.org/. Is that correct?

is this a lab server since you only have 26GB?

Hi,
No this a productive server and runs since a quite long time successfully with 26GB.
Your link is correct, although QEMU is the virtualization-base of PROXMOX Hypervisor (PVE), where the link would be https://www.proxmox.com/en/products/proxmox-virtual-environment/overview
