Oracle error - call to mmap() failed

[Stefan Farrelly]

Hi all,

the search engine is not working again today on the itrc so Im asking this question instead of searching for the answer;

We have an oracle application which is producing this ocassional error to users;

/usr/lib/dld.sl call to mmap() failed - TEXT /finapps/FIN2P/fin2pora/8.0.6/lib/libuicm60.sl
/usr/lib/dld.sl: Not enough space

Now - we DEFINITELY have not run out of RAM or SWAP. We have Gigabytes free - and Perfview confirms we never have used anywhere even close to all RAM, and thus the same for swap.

So - it has to be some sort of Oracle SGA problem ? The SGA is 440MB, but can it becoming too fragmented or exhausted interally by the oracle instance cause this error ? in which case increasing the SGA will fix ?
How can we monitor SGA fragmentation to see if its getting close to needing increasing ?

Thanks to all the Oracle experts,

Cheers,

Stefan

32 bits oracle & 32 bits client
Would 2Gb be some sort of limits.
How many databases do you run on this box ?
