Bear with me - I don't generally configure the VMs themselves...I am calculating the number of hugepages to allocate to a new raptor database on an onprem installation and keep getting different numbers depending on how it calculate it and thought I would ask the community the "right" way to do it
The details:
Total memory: 251g
Free: 249g
Shared: 16Mi
Hugepagesize = 1G
From ipcs -lm I get shared buffer size of 18,014,398,509,481,980kb which gives a number that is unreasonable
If I use the standard calculation of pages = (shared memory x.7) / hugepagesize
I am actually using pages = (memfree X .7) / hugepagesize
I can get 249(g) x .7 / 1(g) = 174 pages
Does this sound reasonable? Or what have I missed.
