tuned-main.conf(5)				      tuned-main.conf file format description					tuned-main.conf(5)

NAME
tuned-main.conf - Tuned global configuration file SYNOPSIS
/etc/tuned/tuned-main.conf DESCRIPTION
This man page documents format of the Tuned global configuration file. The tuned-main.conf file uses the ini-file format. dynamic_tuning=BOOL This defines whether the dynamic tuning is enabled. It is boolean value. It can be True or 1 if the dynamic tuning is enabled and False or 0 if disabled. In such case only the static tuning will be used. Please note if it is enabled here, it is still possible to individually disable it in plugins. sleep_interval=INT Tuned daemon is periodically waken after INT seconds and checks for events. By default this is set to 1 second. If you have Python 2 interpreter with applied patch from Red Hat Bugzilla #917709 this controls responsiveness time of Tuned to commands (i.e. if you request profile switch, it may take up to 1 second until Tuned reacts). Increase this number for higher responsiveness times and more power savings (due to lower number of wakeups). In case you have unpatched Python 2 interpreter, this settings will have no visible effect, because the intepreter will poll 20 times per second. update_interval=INT Update interval for dynamic tuning (in seconds). Tuned daemon is periodically waken after INT seconds, updates its monitors, calcu- lates new tuning parameters for enabled plugins and applies the changes. Plugins that have disabled dynamic tuning are not pro- cessed. By default the INT is set to 10 seconds. Tuned daemon doesn't periodically wake if dynamic tuning is globally disabled (see dynamic_tuning) or this setting set to 0. This must be multiple of sleep_interval. EXAMPLE
dynamic_tuning = 1 sleep_interval = 1 update_interval = 10 FILES
