 Title: Setting memory on Solaris

 We were advised by a company to check what the memeory thresholds were on the machine we recently installed 2 Gig in. The reason for this was to ensure Oracle got a optimal amount for it's use. How can we check whether we have the optimal setting for Oracle (8i)
Thanks

Hi Indy,
You can find total memory on Solaris by following command

/usr/sbin/prtconf | grep size

If you want to check Oracle related memory parameter then check your /etc/system file.
I am assuming you have specified Kernel parameters.

Here is one example for these parameters.

Kernel Parameters on our SUN Enterprise with 640MB for Oracle 8.1.x

set shmsys:shminfo_shmmax=4294967295
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmin=1
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmni=100
set shmsys:shminfo_shmseg=10
set semsys:seminfo_semmni=100
set semsys:seminfo_semmsl=100
set semsys:seminfo_semmns=2500
set semsys:seminfo_semopm=100
set semsys:seminfo_semvmx=32767

Check your Oracle installation document for detail of these parameters.

Hope it helps.

Regards,
