8GB is too much for a swap for RHEL3, but for RHEL4 and above, 8GB is the recommended size if your RAM is 8GB.
you can use the following link to fine tune your swap and oracle system. 1.) http://www.puschitz.com/TuningLinuxForOracle.shtml#SwapSizeRecommendations 2.) http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/FAQ_80_2506.shtm Regards, -jon- On 4/25/07, thad <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hi list, I have a raid 5 200gig disk space and I'm planning to allot 10G for / in 1 LV, 8G for swap in another LV and reserved the rest as unalloted PE for future file system requirement for Oracle and DBs which we plan to put each in separate LVs once we got the specs for its requirement. The 8G for swap allotment is equal to the memory size. Is this a good layout for this purpose and will make it flexible in case we need to add additional LVs or increase the size of existing LVs. Thanks in advance.
