You need to run the following command

/etc/conf/cf.d/configure

and follow the instructions on screen

pick option 16 Shared Data and set the following

SHMMAX 20971520 You then need to relink your kernel

/etc/conf/cf.d/link_unix

And reboot!

There are other parameters configurable by the configure command which need to be checked against the Oracle Documentation but this should get you underway

Hi!

I have SCO OpenServer 5.0.5 and I installed Oracle7.3. When I try to
create a db, in SVRMGRL, I have this error message :

ORA-07331 smsnsg: unable to allocate the variable portion of the SGA.

On the Oracle Support Site, I have this answer :

Cause : The variable portion of the SGA is too big to fit contiguously into
one
segment.

Action : Reconfigure the UNIX kernel to have bigger segments.

So, my question is, how I do that?????
