Red Hat Enterprise Linux Technology Capabilities and Limits

What can Red Hat® Enterprise Linux® do? Find out in this chart of the supported and theoretical limits of the platform.

This article provides information for releases of the operating system that are currently maintained. For information on older, retired releases that are no longer maintained, please consult the companion knowledgebase article entitled Red Hat Enterprise Linux Technology Capabilities and Limits for Retired, Non-Maintained Releases.

Supported limits reflect the current state of system testing by Red Hat and its partners for mainstream hardware. Systems exceeding these supported limits may be included in the Hardware Catalog after joint testing between Red Hat and its partners. If they exceed the supported limits posted here, entries in the Hardware Catalog will include a reference to the details of the system-specific limits and are fully supported. In addition to supported limits reflecting hardware capability, there may be additional limits under the Red Hat Enterprise Linux subscription terms.

Supported limits are subject to change as ongoing testing completes.

The following values are formatted as tested and supported [theoretical].

Maximum logical CPUs

Red Hat defines a logical CPU as any schedulable entity. So every core/thread in a multicore/thread processor is a logical CPU.

Maximum memory

The architectural limits are based on the capabilities of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux kernel and the physical hardware. Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 limit is based on 46-bit physical memory addressing. Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 limit is based on 40-bit physical memory addressing. All system memory should be balanced across NUMA nodes in a NUMA-capable system.

  12. For processors supporting 52-bit virtual addressing.
  13. Network / PXE install requires at least 1.5 GB of RAM for the install procedure only.

  16. Larger numbers are possible, depending on testing and support by the specific hardware vendor. Consult your hardware vendor to determine their limit, and confirm with your Red Hat support representative. In no case will Red Hat support a limit that exceeds the limit supported by the hardware vendor.
  17. It may be necessary to increase certain driver parameters to reach these limits. Consult with your Red Hat support representative. It may be necessary to increase certain driver parameters to reach these limits. Consult with your Red Hat support representative.
  18. Userspace applications will be updated during the life of the release.
  19. Initial testing demonstrated full support for 1536 CPUs on IBM Power10 systems running Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.0 or newer. Further testing has allowed us to raise the maximum supported CPU count to 1920 CPUs when running Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.0 or newer on IBM Power10 systems.
