How to increase memory RAM without reinstalling the docker
Operating system
Ubuntu 24.04
Description
The windows 11 docker is working and functional (Ubuntu 24.04). I installed it originally with RAM_SIZE = "16GB" Now I want to expand the RAM memory to 24GB. I edited the compose changing the RAM to 24GB. I restarted the windows session, no change. I restarted the computer, and it did not change either. Windows is still showing 16GB
Docker compose
services: windows: image: dockurr/windows container_name: windows environment: VERSION: "win11" DISK_SIZE: "256G" RAM_SIZE: "24G" CPU_CORES: "6" devices: - /dev/kvm cap_add: - NET_ADMIN volumes: - /var/win:/storage ports: - 8006:8006 - 3389:3389/tcp - 3389:3389/udp stop_grace_period: 2m restart: always
Docker log
I do not how to extract/find the log file from a docker

This is a strange problem. The changes should be applied immediately.
If you set DEBUG: "Y" you should be able to see the parameters that get send to QEMU. Would be interesting to see if it says 16 or 24 GB.
Hi kroese, thanks for teh replay. I will add the line DEBUG: "Y" to the yml file Quick question, after adding the line. How can I see parameters sent to QEMU?
@lmargit They will get added to the log output:
docker logs windows
