My Oracle users are getting errors that the process is out of memory. The o/s does not log this problem. I have tracked down a kernel parameter called mman_elog that I need to enable to activate such logging. Can anyone help with information re how to activate this param?
Thanks,
Chris
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: Using adb to change hidden kernel params
echo "mman_elog?W 1" | adb -w /stand/vmunix
You should see a message back like;
mman_elog: 0 = 1
Then reboot.

Re: Using adb to change hidden kernel params
You'd be better off checking things like the maxdsiz/maxssiz and the swap space usage (with swapinfo -tm) and then check the bottom line only.

Re: Using adb to change hidden kernel params
Steve,
Ithere a way to change the param on the fly? This is in case a reboot clears the problem.
Andy,
Those params were already at about 128Mb, the actual cause was some dodgy data in the tables.
Alan,
Thanks for the doc. Do you know how process memory relates to shared memory? I wish the response centre had told me about the ipcs command when I spoke to them!

Re: Using adb to change hidden kernel params
Chris,
nope, no way to modify it on the fly. All you can do is 'patch' the kernel (cant even set it in the system file!) and if you ever rebuild the kernel or say install a patch which rebuilds it you will need to make the adb change again! mman_elog is not a tunable parameter.
