We pretty much went by Oracle's doc. The oracle 10g server has 4GIG
memory and we gave it 4 V-disks for swap - each V-DISK has 1600000- so
more than 6GIG.

Subject: Oracle 10g install question

Hi

A group is wanting to install Oracle 10g and is asking for a server with
3Gb Memory and swap at 1.5x the memory This sounds like an Intel install
but is out of the Linux for zSeries install guide.

What have you seen as to what is really needed to install and run
oracle?
Do I really need a server that large and with that much swap space?

TIA

I would question if you need all 4 swaps in v-disk.
I know that as soon as you see swapping in one of them you will
increase memory but wouldn't it make more sense to have 3 swaps on the
real stuff?
