standard kernel : no rebuild.
just use sysctl -p
after writing yr preeferred settings into /etc/sysctl.conf

for advanced linux guys: they can be set directly - but the previous way is more convinient.

in case you don't set them yr installation might hnag when creating the database instance. in this case just install the database later. means start dbassiost fter setting the kernel params. doesn't need a complete re-install.

I ventured into my first red hat install not to long ago, but these parameters do do need a kernel rebuild (afaik)

Unless you've run into errors requiring adjustment of these parameters, don't bother with them.

I've run 4 databases on a 2Gig RAM RH 7.1 box without ever touching these.

Modifying them requires rebuilding the kernel, which can be quite a hassle.

It also invalidates Oracle support on linux.
