Huge Pages and Automatic Memory Management in 12C

flying_penguinDec 15 2016 — edited Dec 16 2016

DB version: 12.1.0.2

OS : RHEL 7.2

Currently in my shop, all the DB are of version 11.2.0.4 running on Oracle Linux 6.5.

Linux admins have enabled Huge Pages on all these DB servers. Since Huge Pages feature doesn't work well with Automatic Memory Managent in Linux 6.X , I have set SGA_TARGET and PGA_AGGREGATE_TARGET parameters separately (ASMM) rather than using MEMORY_TARGET.

Now, I am going to create my first 12C DB in RHEL 7.2 . This server has 128 GB Physical RAM. I will ask my Linux Admin to enable Huge Pages in this server.

Since the OS is RHEL 7.2 , can I just use MEMORY_TARGET (AMM) ? I am planning to set MEMORY_TARGET of 60 GB
