Linux如何禁用透明大页---Alfred Zhao

环境： RHEL 6.5 + Oracle 11.2.0.4 RAC

1.确认透明大页是否开启

grep HugePage /proc/meminfo cat /sys/kernel/mm/redhat_transparent_hugepage/enabled

[root@jystdrac1 ~]# grep HugePage /proc/meminfo AnonHugePages: 690176 kB HugePages_Total: 3433 HugePages_Free: 383 HugePages_Rsvd: 23 HugePages_Surp: 0 [root@jystdrac1 ~]#

若上面的AnonHugePages > 0, 说明启用了透明大页。还可以查看：

[root@jystdrac1 ~]# cat /sys/kernel/mm/redhat_transparent_hugepage/enabled [always] madvise never

若上面扩号是在never的位置，说明禁用了透明大页。

2.尝试修改grub.conf

vi /etc/grub.conf 追加如下配置：

transparent_hugepage=never

重启主机：

shutdown -Fr now

再次查询AnonHugePages发现透明大页并没有被禁用。

3.查阅资料确认最终修改方法

随后查阅资料，参考MOS：ALERT: Disable Transparent HugePages on SLES11, RHEL6, RHEL7, OL6, OL7, and UEK2 and above (Doc ID 1557478.1) 文档中提到两种方法：

To disable Transparent HugePages boot time either one of the following 2 methods may be used: Add the following to the kernel boot line in /etc/grub.conf (a symlink to /boot/grub/grub.conf) and reboot the server (this is the preferred method): transparent_hugepage=never Once modified the line will read similar to the following example: title Oracle Linux Server (2.6.32-300.25.1.el6uek.x86_64) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.32-300.25.1.el6uek.x86_64 ro root=LABEL=/ transparent_hugepage=never initrd /initramfs-2.6.32-300.25.1.el6uek.x86_64.img OR Add the following lines in /etc/rc.local and reboot the server (this still can be done on Redhat 7 although rc.local is being deprecated): if test -f /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled; then echo never > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled fi if test -f /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag; then echo never > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag fi Please change the file path for RHEL kernel to /sys/kernel/mm/redhat_transparent_hugepage/ accordingly.

发现之前用的方法，同样也是MOS建议优先选择的方法，就是将transparent_hugepage=never添加到/etc/grub.conf中，但是是加到kenel那一行后面的，实际尝试后可行。 在节点2测试，公开 /etc/grub.conf 配置文件：

[root@jystdrac2 ~]# cat /etc/grub.conf # grub.conf generated by anaconda # # Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file # NOTICE: You have a /boot partition. This means that # all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /boot/, eg. # root (hd0,0) # kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/mapper/vg_linuxbase-lv_root # initrd /initrd-[generic-]version.img #boot=/dev/sda default=0 timeout=5 splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz hiddenmenu title Red Hat Enterprise Linux (2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64 ro root=/dev/mapper/vg_linuxbase-lv_root rd_NO_LUKS LANG=en_US.UTF-8 rd_LVM_LV=vg_linuxbase/lv_root rd_NO_MD rd_LVM_LV=vg_linuxbase/lv_swap SYSFONT=latarcyrheb-sun16 crashkernel=auto KEYBOARDTYPE=pc KEYTABLE=us rd_NO_DM rhgb quiet transparent_hugepage=never initrd /initramfs-2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64.img

查看透明大页也是关闭的：

[oracle@jystdrac2 ~]$ grep HugePage /proc/meminfo AnonHugePages: 0 kB HugePages_Total: 3433 HugePages_Free: 3433 HugePages_Rsvd: 0 HugePages_Surp: 0 [root@jystdrac2 ~]# cat /sys/kernel/mm/redhat_transparent_hugepage/enabled always madvise [never] ---来自腾讯云社区的---Alfred Zhao
