Kernel parameters for oracle installation
When I run the Oracle installer, following checks are failed:

Checking for shmsys:shminfo_shmmax=4294967295; found no entry. Failed <<<<
Checking for shmsys:shminfo_shmmni=100; found no entry. Failed <<<<
Checking for semsys:seminfo_semmni=100; found no entry. Failed <<<<
Checking for semsys:seminfo_semmsl=256; found no entry. Failed <<<<
Check complete. The overall result of this check is: Failed <<<<

Any pointer on how to set the these parameter. Sorry I am new to this level detail
and I appreciate your comments.

Cheers,

Append the entries to the /etc/system file and reboot
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmax=4294967295
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmni=100
set semsys:seminfo_semmni=100
set semsys:seminfo_semmsl=256
