Question 20 5 pts The balloon memory manager running on the guest OS allocates memory pages on the guest OS. The guest OS pins" these pages to main memory frames "physical memo as seen by the guest OS) so they can't be swapped out by the guest OS. The guest O will see its free frame list dwindle and will begin to swap out more main memory frames, effectively allowing the VMM to reduce the guest's allocation (or need) of "real" ph memory while letting the guest OS effectively manage paging and memory allocation. To increase physical memory allo to reduce its pinned memory allocation ysical cation for a guest, the VMM will direct the balloon process True False 10/
