RE: HP9000/HP-UX/8.1.5 System Move

Jon:

Thanks for the help. Another lister e-mailed me directly with the same suggestion about kernel parameters. I scanned MetaLink (it was up! Yowza!) and found a note about reducing SHMMAX. It was set to 16G on the new box, and since we just moved the Oracle binaries from the 'K' to the 'L' we have the 32-bit code. We brought SHMMAX down to about 1.75GB and the instances started OK.

Thanks for the assist!

Mike

Michael:

Some things to consider:

1. If you're using MTS, your hostname is probably too long in the
MTS_LISTENER_ADDRESS init.ora parameter. Use the IP address for the host
value for this parameter.

2. If you're using HP-UX 64-bit and Oracle is 32-bit, you may need to reduce
your SHMMAX kernel parameter. For that matter, you may want to check on all
your kernel parameters and make sure they match your other machine. I've had
this problem before (HP-UX 11.0 64-bit and Oracle 8i 32-bit) and it was
something to do with kernel parameters not being set correctly.

That's all I can think of right now. See if either of these ideas work for
you.
