Hi, we have deployed CML 2.8 on baremetal and are hoping there is a way to adjust the system memory utilisation limit of 80%? Our server has 256GB of RAM and an 80% limit on large servers is quite a waste. We were hoping to be able to run at least a couple more Cat9k / N9K / ASR9K nodes for the "virtual twin" of our core but alas we hit the 80% limit with everything running well. I'm hoping there is switch via the console to increase the limit

Update. I finally found my ideal lab. After VMware was acquired by Brocade I decided to look for another solution and that is Proxmox: How to install CML on Proxmox
I bought a barebone mini pc and expanded it with 64Gb DDR5 ram memory. I installed proxmox on it and installed CML 2.8.1 with the help of the manual. This is the best setup I have ever had and CML runs smoothly on it.
