linux关闭透明大页永久生效,禁用Linux透明大页

Oracle 安装时官方建议关闭Linux的透明大页，防止内存延迟分配导致的性能问题

MOS：ID 1557478.1

Because Transparent HugePages are known to cause unexpected node reboots and performance problems with RAC, Oracle strongly advises to disable the use of Transparent HugePages. In addition, Transparent Hugepages may cause problems even in a single-instance database environment with unexpected performance problems or delays. As such, Oracle recommends disabling Transparent HugePages on all Database servers running Oracle.

1.查看透明大页是否启用

RHEL  6：

# cat /sys/kernel/mm/redhat_transparent_hugepage/enabled

[oracle@rhel 6 ~]$ cat /sys/kernel/mm/redhat_transparent_hugepage/enabled

[always] madvise never

RHEL  7：

# cat /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled

[root@rhel 7 ~]# cat /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled

[always] madvise never

2.禁用透明大页

RHEL 6：

(1).编辑 /etc/grub.conf 文件，在kernel 那一行后面追加 transparent_hugepage=never

例如：

default=0

timeout=5

splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz

hiddenmenu

title Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 (2.6.32-642.el6.x86_64)

root (hd0,0)

kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.32-642.el6.x86_64 ro root=/dev/mapper/rootvg-lvroot rd_NO_LUKS KEYBOARDTYPE=pc KEYTABLE=us LANG=en_US.UTF-8 rd_LVM_LV=rootvg/lvswap rd_NO_MD SYSFONT=latarcyrheb-sun16 crashkernel=auto rd_LVM_LV=rootvg/lvroot rd_NO_DM rhgb quiet transparent_hugepage=never

initrd /initramfs-2.6.32-642.el6.x86_64.img

(2).重启系统生效。

RHEL 7：

(1).编辑/etc/sysconfig/grub 文件，在 GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX 那一行后面追加 transparent_hugepage=never

例如：

GRUB_TIMEOUT=5

GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR="$(sed 's, release .*$,,g' /etc/system-release)"

GRUB_DEFAULT=saved

GRUB_DISABLE_SUBMENU=true

GRUB_TERMINAL_OUTPUT="console"

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="crashkernel=auto rd.lvm.lv=rootvg/root rd.lvm.lv=rootvg/swap rhgb quiet transparent_hugepage=never"

GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY="true"

(2).再使用 grub2-mkconfig 生成grub.cfg配置文件。

# grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg

(3).重启系统使配置生效。
