Uninstall tuned Package
An XCCDF Rule
Description
The tuned package can be removed with the following command:
$ sudo yum erase tuned
warning alert: Warning
This rule is disabled on Red Hat Virtualization Hosts and Managers, it will report not applicable.
RHV requires tuned package for tuning profiles that can enhance virtualization performance.
Rationale
tuned contains a daemon that tunes the system settings dynamically.
It does so by monitoring the usage of several system components periodically. Based
on that information, components will then be put into lower or higher power savings
modes to adapt to the current usage.
