Hi All:
I have an HP DL380G5 server which I am loading CentOS 6.2 on and it does not appear to recognize all of the RAM installed on the server. The BIOS is reporting 26GB however top is reporting:
Mem: 15720140k total, 418988k used, 15301152k free, 30256k buffers Swap: 17956856k total, 0k used, 17956856k free, 135536k cached
and free is reporting:
total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 15720140 418848 15301292 0 30256 135536 -/+ buffers/cache: 253056 15467084 Swap: 17956856 0 17956856
I have tried adding the mem= parameter to the /boot/grub/grub.conf file as in:
title CentOS (2.6.32-220.17.1.el6.i686) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.32-220.17.1.el6.i686 ro [SNIP] initrd /initramfs-2.6.32-220.17.1.el6.i686.img mem=26624M
but this has not appeared to work.
Any suggestions would be gratefully appreciated.
TIA
Regards, Hugh
