Linux基础：如何找出你的系统所支持的最大内存

203 阅读 0 评论 134 点赞

我是靠谱客的博主乐观寒风，最近开发中收集的这篇文章主要介绍Linux基础：如何找出你的系统所支持的最大内存，觉得挺不错的，现在分享给大家，希望可以做个参考。

概述

大多数情况下你可以从BIOS、产品目录或者干脆手动找出你的系统所持的最大内存。这里，我们介绍一种简单有用的技巧——使用dmidecode来找出系统支持的最大内存，这样你就无需打开机箱或者参照BIOS和产品目录了。

什么是 dmidecode?

就像你可能知道的一样， dmidecode是一个将计算机DMI（又名SMBIOS）表的内容转换为可读格式的工具。这个表包含了系统硬件组件的介绍以及其他一些如序列号和IOS版本等有用的信息。使用dmidecode你能够获取此项信息，而无需去探测真实的硬件。

找出你的系统所支持的最大内存

请确定你已经在系统中安装了dmidecode，我觉得你的操作系统应该已经自动安装过了，不过并不非常确定。

在基于Deb的系统中安装

sudo apt-get install dmidecode

在基于RPM的系统中安装

sudo yum install dmidecode

在SUSE/openSUSE中安装

sudo zypper in dmidecode

好了，我们已经安装了dmidecode，接下来让我们找出支持的最大内存。输入以下命令：

sudo dmidecode -t 16

输出样本

# dmidecode 2.12
SMBIOS 2.6 present.
 
Handle 0x0014, DMI type 16, 15 bytes
Physical Memory Array
 Location: System Board Or Motherboard
 Use: System Memory
 Error Correction Type: None
 Maximum Capacity: 16 GB
 Error Information Handle: Not Provided
 Number Of Devices: 2

就像你看到的，我的系统支持最大内存到16G，并且有两个内存插槽，简单吧？

接下来，让我们找出现在已经安装的内存的详细信息。

sudo dmidecode -t 17

输出样本

# dmidecode 2.12

就像上边输出的一样，我在插槽1里边安装了一个内存条。内存大小为4G，类型为DDR3，速度为1067 MHz。

同样的，我们可以通过下边命令得到完整的内存信息。

sudo dmidecode -t memory
sudo dmidecode -t memory | less
sudo dmidecode -t memory | more

输出样本
