The updated information states that the kernel setting is only for the current Nevada build. We are not going to use the kernel debugger method to change the setting on a live production system (and do this everytime we need to reboot).
We're back to trying to set their expectations more realistically, and using proper tools to measure memory usage. As I stated at the outset, they are trying to start up a 10GB SGA database within two minutes to "simulate" the start-up of five 2GB databases at boot-up. I sincerely doubt they are going to start all five databases simultaneously within two minutes on a regular boot-up. So, what is the best use of the OS tools (vmstat, etc.) to show them how this would really occur?
