Hello, List,

Our Sun Fire 4800 server have 8 CPUs and 16G memory.I set the SHMMAX kernel parameter to 4294967295 according to installation guide on metalink.The SHMMAX is "max shared memory segment size".What's the relationship between SHMMAX and max size of SGA?Because our oracle's SGA may exceed 4G,can I set this parameter to 8G,10G?

Any suggestion is appreciated.

Thanks,

Zhai Jingmin
