So seems like there is around 3G free memory which does match with the vmstat o/p
I am concerned about this issue as we did face memory contingency on this node when the other node failed over resulting in around 5000 sessions using this node.
Sessions were failing constantly due to memory issues, the issue was sorted only after fixing the other node. There was huge amount of swapping going on too.
sga max is set to 5G which is 1/6th of total RAM size. So this would mean more than 25G is consumed by PGA when failover occurs but when I check the PGA usage on both the instances it is around 6G per instance, so the combined usage is less than 12G and thats the reason I am confused.
So I am not sure whether there is some other clusterware process or java process that is consuming all the memory. From the ps -ef OS command I see around 300 each of these connections.
So I am not sure how to check the total memory consumption of these processes as I cannot sum them as this might give me a false value due to child processes involved. Is there any way for me to identify the actual memory usage of these processes?

Hello:
Environment is: Oracle 817 on IBM RS/6000 AIX 433
I have 4GB RAM on the box and Page/Swap is about the same.
Presently I am using close to 1GB of RAM towards 5 instances of ORACLE production environments.
How can I know, how much of memory/RAM is used for :

Hi all,
Without oracle tunning I understand that oracle processes always run on a single CPU at a time (the prstat output always show 1 CPU number) even on multi-processor hardware.
Is it correct?

Hello,
I'm looking for a command or script that could permit me to know what is memory usage group by HP-UX kernel, oracle processes and other users (specific software).
A command like 'top' but for all processes and not only for 12 max could be very useful
Thanks in advance (4 Replies)

Hi,
I'm running a multi-process software system on a Solaris 8 machine. When I monitor the memory usage, I see that the free memory is dropping rapidly, but I can't detect a process that uses this memory.
I'm using "top" to get the free memory and the memory usage of processes.
Thanks. (3 Replies)
Hi All,
We have a server with Solaris 10 installed. The total memory of the server is 64GB. In order to check the memory info of the server I use "top" utility that gives me total and free memory in real-time.

install-solaris
install-solaris(1M)install-solaris(1M)NAME
install-solaris - install the Solaris operating system
SYNOPSIS
install-solaris
install-solaris invokes the Solaris Install program. Depending on graphical capability and available memory at the time of invocation,
install-solaris invokes either a text-based installer or a graphical installer.
The following minimum requirements for physical memory dictate which features are available during installation:
For SPARC machines:
128 MB
Minimum physical memory for all installation types
128 MB
Minimum physical memory required for windowing system
384 MB
Minimum physical memory required for graphical-based installation
For x86 machines:
256 MB
Minimum physical memory for all installation types
256 MB
Minimum physical memory required for windowing system
512 MB
Minimum physical memory required for graphical-based installation
In some cases, even if the minimum physical memory is present, available virtual memory after system startup can limit the number of fea-
tures available.
install-solaris exists only on the Solaris installation media (CD or DVD) and should be invoked only from there. Refer to the for more
details.
install-solaris allows installation of the operating system onto any standalone system. install-solaris loads the software available on the
installation media. Refer to the for disk space requirements.
Refer to the for more information on the various menus and selections.
