Description

Hi,

I'm trying to deploy a virtual machine using this provider, and configure it so that it reserves all the ram memory. This is my main.tf:

As you can see, I have used both memory_reservation = 8192 and/ "sched.mem.pin" = "TRUE" in the extra_config, but I'm not being able to get it working.
Is there anything I am missing, or doing wrong?

Thanks a lot for your great work

Regards
