RHEL Oracle HUgepages issue

We run RHEL 5.3 and  have diffculty in settting up hugepages. We have added the

vm.nr_hugepages value in /etc/sysctl.conf and also set up memlock values in /etc/security/limits.conf, But when i cat /proc/meminfo|grep -i huge i always see that  HUGEPAGES_TOTAL and HUGEPAGES_FREE are the same indicating oracle is not using it at all. Could anyone help with this?

 

Thanks
