Hi - I just finshed an install on Linux 2.1 Advanced server using the installation document of Oracle 9.2 for Linux/Intel avialable on technet.
I ended up doing this for the kernel paramters echo 250 3200 100 128 > sem echo 2147483648 > shmax echo 65536 > /proc/sys/fs/file-max echo 1024 65000 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_local_port_range ulimit -u 16384 skipped SHMMNI because it was already 4096 Starting on page 2.19 of the doc - it indicates how to do SEMMSL ,SMMNS, SMEOPM, SEMMNI as above with "sem". in the /proc/sys/kernel virtual filesystem. Then it says you can do the shared memory pamater as in the "shmax' example. After that it says to set the process limit by using ulimit -u. And now.. to the questions Then it has a list of the minimum values of parameters required to run 9i with a single datbase instance on Linux. My first problem is, I don't understand how to set 3 of these. They don't exist in the /proc/sys/kernel filesystem. SEMMNI ( taken care of above).. SEMMNS (taken care of above). SEMOPM (taken care of above) SEMMSL (taken care of above) SHMMAX (taken care of above) SHMMIN shoudl be 1 (hot to set this?) - I have no shmmin in /proc/sys/kernel SHMMNI should be 100 was already 4096 so skipped it SHMSEG should be 4096 (how to set this?) - I also have no shmseg in /proc/sys/kernel SHMVMX should be 32767 (how to set this?) - and I have no shmvmx in /proc/sys/kernel So there are those 3 questions - and then the following - "Write a script to initialize these values during system startup, and include the script in your system init files".. Now - I guess the script looks similar to the lines I pasted at the top of the email - but where does it go? This may be a bit of a Linux newbie question but aren't there various run levels so wouldn't where I place the initilization stuff matter how the box is configured? Do I just make a little bash script? What is preferred and where should it go? Lastly - do any of these require a recompile of the kernel or not? Can they all be set safely on boot? Thanks..
