Classic oracle support information here ... they give a fix that refers to a directory that does not exist.  Who would QA a support alert?

First the directory ( on 6.4 anyhow ) is /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage NOT ( ... hugepages ).

Plus they do not note that directory name is also different between release levels ( 6.2 versus 6.4 ) etc.

Caveat emptor.


if test -f /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepages/enabled; then
   echo never > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepages/enabled
fi
if test -f /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepages/defrag; then
   echo never > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepages/defrag
fi
