RE: Automatic Shared Memory question

I wonder if those buffers stored in the shared pool are being reported twice in v$sgastat - once under "KGH: NO ACCESS" and again under "buffer_cache"? That would explain why sum(bytes) from v$sgastat is so much larger than my sga_target & sga_max_size. I'll see if I can find a way to confirm this is what's happening . . .

Thanks Tanel for the very insightful information!

Well, believe or not, in addition to keeping private undo and redo buffers in shared pool, Oracle can nowadays hold some of the buffer cache there as well.
