Hi, First you'll need to configure the host's kernel parameters to use huge pages (2M or 1G on x86).
Then in case you want to use huge pages for your high performance VM, set it via Custom Properties to tell oVirt which size of hugepages to use for that VM. Our recommendation is to use the same size as set for the host. Please check [1] for more details on how to configure your VM. One of our colleagues wrote a blog post that is a bit old but may help: https://mpolednik.github.io/2017/06/26/hugepages-and-ovirt/ [1] https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/vmm-guide/chap-Additional_Configuration.html#configuring-huge-pages Thanks, Sharon <https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/vmm-guide/chap-Additional_Configuration.html#configuring-huge-pages> On Mon, Dec 16, 2019 at 11:43 PM <supo...@logicworks.pt> wrote: > I see, Thanks > > For the huge pages, do I need to configure the kernel or just use the > value of 1048576, which is the recommended one? > > Thanks > > José > > ------------------------------ > *De: *"Sharon Gratch" <sgra...@redhat.com> > *Para: *supo...@logicworks.pt > *Cc: *"users" <users@ovirt.org> > *Enviadas: *Domingo, 15 De Dezembro de 2019 13:43:23 > *Assunto: *Re: [ovirt-users] NMA nodes > > Hi, > > Enable virtual NUMA nodes and setting NUMA pinning topology for a high > performance VM are both suggested configuration changes which are proposed > to the user.
