Hey everyone,
Recently I have setup a couple 8.1.6
databases on Solaris 8. The databases appear to function normally, but
when I shutdown either of them I receive the following message in
a trace file:
skgm
warning: EINVAL creating segment of size 0000000004100000
fix shm parameters in /etc/system or equivalent
fix shm parameters in /etc/system or equivalent
(the message is repeated several
times except for the segment size being
different)
I
checked the /etc/system parameters and they are the same as some of my other
boxes (Solaris 6 machines running 4-6 databases each) and they seem to work
fine. Memory shouldn't be a problem on this machine since it has 4
Gb of RAM with only 2 databases up and running. Running 'top'
shows that plenty of memory is available also. Here are the /etc/system
parameters for Oracle....
set
semsys:seminfo_semmni=750
set semsys:seminfo_semmsl=600
set semsys:seminfo_semmns=1200
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmax=67108864
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmni=1200
set shmsys:shminfo_shmseg=180
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmin=30
set semsys:seminfo_semmsl=600
set semsys:seminfo_semmns=1200
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmax=67108864
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmni=1200
set shmsys:shminfo_shmseg=180
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmin=30
Does
Solaris 8 require some of these parameters to be higher? I tried looking
on MetaLink, but....well, you know that story. Ask Ross Mohan for the
details on Metalink....
Thanks,
