For Xen, you can only adjust the memory of a running domain if the domain is
paravirtualized or running the PV balloon driver.
For LXC, the value being set is the cgroups value for limit_in_bytes or the
maximum amount of user memory (including file cache). When viewing memory

the current memory in use and the maximum value allowed to set memory, use
the B<virsh dominfo> command.
