Shalom,

dbc_max_pct can be increased.

There are two versions of 11i released today, I beliee its dynamic, ie does not require a reboot in 11i v2.

You may also wish to increase dbc_min_pct

If these two parameters are too far apart the system can lose a lot of resources when it tries to dynamically adjust the buffer cache.

Stop!!!!! You absolutely MUST change your dbc_max_pct parameter. There is absolutely no way you want it to be 100.

That means that, at least in theory, your buffer cache could take up 100% of your RAM, leaving you no room for other things, like critical HP-UX processes to run.

Ideally, with HP-UX 11.11, your buffer cache should be between 800 and 1600 MB.

Please please please reduce your dbc_max_pct as soon as possible.

Now, tell us what your real problem is. Why do you think you need to increase your buffer cache size?
