The Oracle installation manual says that the maximum allowable shared memory is 1.75GB. Does that apply to the maximum size of the SGA? Must the SGA be less than 1.75GB?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: Oracle SGA size
There have been a lot of long detailed answers to this question. Please search the forum archives for shared memory and you will find the answers you seek.

Re: Oracle SGA size
Yes if you are using 32 bit Oracle, No if you are using 64 bit Oracle.
As Stefan says, a forum search will give you several previous threads.

Re: Oracle SGA size
For example:
Will this work for an HP11 Oracle 7.3.3.4 (32bit) database with 2 instances:
databaseA: SGA size set to 1GB
databaseB: SGA size set to 1GB.
Or does that exceed the 1.8G shared memory segment rule (assuming 4G swap and 4G physical memory)?
Thanks again!

SolutionThe 32 bit model for shared memory only allows 1.75Gb system wide.
However at 11.00, HP have implemented a system called 'Memory Windows' which allow many sets of 1.75Gb shared memory, each shared by a number of processes which are in the same 'window'.
For details, there are a couple of .txt files in /usr/share/doc (on an 11.00 system) called mem_mgt.txt and mem_wndows.txt.
Also a forum search will give you more information.

John

Re: Oracle SGA size
That also counts, if you run several databases in 32-bit mode. Then you have to add up the size of the SGA's to avoid using more than 1.75 GB. Try to run Memory windows.
Kind regards
