think this is more so because of MTS environments, I hardly ever use MTS.

<span

style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Isn't that the inverse?  You require one shadow process per session, plus the background processes.  You should always have more procs than sessions (jn a non-MTS environment).

<span

style='font-size:10.0pt'>Hi,
I would like to find out how to
compute/estimate the maximum  number of sessions a db can handle.

Preferably based on the init.ora
params sessions and processes, size of sga, size of ram, the /etc/system params etc.
This is for a db running using MTS.
