It states that my sga_target is not high enough and that i should set it to the value listed. Also I get the saem resopnse from the ADDM inside of the OEM so I know it is not just a TOAD thing. So that makes sense why the ADDM keeps asking me to increase the sga_target. The problem is that number varies dependign on the time fo day. Is there a query that ican run to get a best pracitce average to find out what to increase my sga_target or should I jsut tKe the advice of the ADDM and set it to the highest value it tells me to for the past week.
