Need not be since SHMMAX specified the maximum size of shared memory, SGA can be more than this. In that case (a multisegment SGA model) can result in two are more shared memory segments (use ipcs -m to see this). If the system is overloaded and cannot find contiguous memory space this is a better option. Also, you can configure Oracle to load faster by grabbing the initial shared memory segment and expanding later. Received on Thu Sep 25 1997 - 00:00:00 CEST
