hugetlb_shm_group is not needed on Red Hat
Have you googled to see whether I've already blogged the solution to you
problem?
If you are on 11.1 you probably don't have the libnuma symlinks right. If you
can't find it with google let me know
Also, this notion that 32bit OS deployments don't need hugepages is quite
wrong.
Any system with large connection count is not going to be able to afford the
wasted page table memory.
Use hugepages.

This is pretty much what I am doing, however the parameter-
vm.hugetlb_shm_group=1300
- I am under the impression that this does not apply to RedHat 5, only
to SUSE and a few other varients.
Can anybody that has done this on RedHat 5 verify if this parameter is
needed in /etc/sysctl.conf ?

Hi,
I did it and is working perfectly well.
My configuration :
Not Using AMM with ASM and database
/etc/sysctl.conf :
vm.nr_hugepages= 12288 -- page size 2MB => 24 GB
vm.hugetlb_shm_group=1300 --id dba, be careful if it's a different user
between ASM and Database
kernel.shmmax=25769803776 -- => 24 GB
kernel.shmall=6291456 -- page size 4KB =>24 GB
/etc/security/limits.conf :
memlock=25165824 -- KB => 24 GB
/etc/profile
ulimit -u 16384 -n 65536 -l 25165824
To check you are using Huge Page
grep Huge /proc/meminfo
I hope it 'will help.
Thierry.
