Dba's

I got the following error during the cache config portion of Oracle 9iAS:

    ORA-27101 shared memory realm does not exist

Am I missing a kernel parameter, the error message text is useless:

%> oerr ora 27101

           27101, 00000, "shared memory realm does not exist"
           // *Cause: Unable to locate shared memory realm
          // *Action: Verify that the realm is accessible

 Subject: CACHE/NOCACHE and _SMALL_TABLE_THRESHOLD

Hi All,

Does Oracle apply CACHE/NOCACHE option along with the _SMALL_TABLE_THRESHOLD parameter to determine whether to place data blocks at the MRU or LRU end of the buffer cache? Is _SMALL_TABLE_THRESHOLD parameter applicable in Oracle8? If Oracle8 uses both CACHE/NOCACHE option and _SMALL_TABLE_THRESHOLD parameter, then which one takes precedence? For example, if a table is created with NOCACHE, but it's size is less than _SMALL_TABLE_THRESHOLD, then how Oracle is going to determine whether to place it at the LRU or MRU end of the buffer cache?

Thanks,
Jay

Gurus,
In all the years that I have dealt with Oracle (both as a developer and a DBA --
altogether 3 years) I never stopped to pay much attention to the fact that when
you define a field in a table as NUMERIC, no matter what precision and scale you
define for it, you are always going to get 22 bytes allocated for this field in
the table. While I see the benefit of being able to store really large numbers
in the database, most of the time it's a waste. Let's say I wanted to store a record for each person living on the planet -- ~
7bln records.
The record would only have one field -- a unique ID of this person, starting
with 1,2,3, ...
Thus the max number I would want to store would be 7,000,000,000, plus planning
for potential population growth - ~35 bln in 10 years. If I allocate 22 bytes for each of these numbers I would end up needing approx.
140Gb right away.
If there was a way for me to only allocate 6 bytes (plenty of space for billions), I would only need 40Gb.
My question is: is there a way to do it in Oracle? I just went through documentation for 7.3.4 and this is the only data type available (there others but they are just synonyms of NUMERIC). If somebody can shed the light on this I would be very appreciative. Thanks,
Val Gamerman.

Can ORACLE NAMES SERVER be implemented on Oracle Standard Edition (8.1.5)?

I have tried it unsuccesfully and read in one of the forums that it cannot be implemented, but not sure of it. I have followed steps from some of the papers from Metalink to imelement it. It works fine and names server starts fine, but starting listener after registering it with name server returns ORA-12537/ORA-12560. TIA.

In the old days (7.3.4), Oracle had a GUI tool called Performance Manager. It did exactly what you're looking for. You could do a screen shot of the Performance Charts and graphs and submit them to Management.
