[lc-devel] Question about /proc/sys/vm/ freepages parameter on red-hat7.2

[franck J. <fjo...@re...>]

Hello,

I try to modify the /proc/sys/vm/freepages parameters (min,low,high)
to tune the VM system of my linux box, but it seems that this
parameter is read-only..(i try with sysctl (modify /etc/sysctl.conf , and
with echo X Y Z > /proc/sys/vm/freepages
and the system said "permision denied".

Can you please tell me how to tune this parameter.

Great thanks

PS : I checked the web but didn't find a solution at this time...
