hi Stephen,

Thanks for the reply. Following is the observation...

*************************************************************

$ dpdk-hugepages.py -s
Node Pages Size Total
2 512 2Mb 1Gb
6 512 2Mb 1Gb

Hugepages mounted on /dev/hugepages /mnt/huge

$ sudo dpdk-hugepages.py -p 1G --setup 2G
Unable to set pages (0 instead of 2 in /sys/devices/system/node/node4/hugepages/hugepages-1048576kB/nr_hugepages).

Your hugepages are not setup correctly. The mount is for 1G pages
and the sysctl entry makes 2M pages.

Did you try using the dpdk-hugepages script?
