I'm having a problem with Oracle 8.1.5 EE on Sun 4500 running Solaris 2.6. 6 cpu (400mhz), 6 gig memory

I want to make the SGA 3 gig. (2.5 block buffers, and 500 meg shared pool).

I can only make the SGA 1 gig before I get ora-27123 errors about not being able to attach to memory segment.
I've set the the shmmax to 4 gig and the other parms mentioned in the book, but still come up empty. I called Oracle and they have not been very helpful.

Can somebody send me a copy of the /etc/system parms that are working? Are there other settings that would cause this?

Thanks,
