Nope.

Node Summary -> Node characteristics -> General -> Total physical memory (RAM): 9.08 GB

The dom0 has memory like:

# free -m
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:          9298       5482       3815        457         28       4328
-/+ buffers/cache:       1125       8172
Swap:        32767          2      32765

The system has memory like:

# xl info 2>&1 | grep memory
total_memory           : 1048467
free_memory            : 998984

Here we see: 9298/1024 = 9.08, which is definetly not "Total physical memory", but "Total OS memory"

Yes, it is defenitly os memory, not physical memory. Fusion inventory is not correctly labeling the memory reported (it is in tag <HARDWARE><MEMORY>), and that we (dumbly) used the same term.

Do you have defferent information in Node Summary -> Node characteristics -> hardware > memory, where you should have "memory slots"? I'm almost sure it will be the same as os memory, though.

Hi,

the memory slots are correctly detected...

Number of slots is correct (96)
and it also knows in which slot modules are installed.
A sum is not available.

I would much prefer if the correct number was obtained based on the xl/xm info output.
less effort on all ends and not relying on dmidecode (at least on ARM that matters!)

For people who want to test we xen it is on ubuntu-18-04-64.labo.normation.com that is on orchestrateur-4.labo.normation.com
