Manage TuneD profiles

Manage TuneD profiles by listing available profiles, setting a specific profile, and disabling TuneD to optimize system performance for specific workloads.

Before you begin

  • You have installed and enabled TuneD.
  • You have administrative privileges.

Procedure

  1. List all the available predefined TuneD profiles: 
    $ tuned-adm list
  2. Optional: To let TuneD recommend the most suitable profile for your system, use the following command: 
    # tuned-adm recommend
     
    throughput-performance
  3. Activate the profile: 
    # tuned-adm profile selected-profile

    Alternatively, you can activate a combination of multiple profiles:

    # tuned-adm profile selected-profile1selected-profile2
  4. View the current active TuneD profile on your system: 
    # tuned-adm active
     
    Current active profile: selected-profile
  5. Disable all tunings temporarily: 
    # tuned-adm off
     
    The tunings are applied again after the TuneD service restarts.
  6. Optional: Stop and disable the TuneD service permanently: 
    # systemctl disable --now tuned
