Hi,


  I'm new to system tuning of Oracle DB.  Our Oracle DB seems to only
allow 128 connections,
while the DB connection requirement has exceed 250. How could I
increase the max number of connection allowed for this server? should
I tune any other parameter ?

   Joe

ps. there are 16 CPUs with 8GB DRAM and Disk arrays installed . The OS
is HP-UX 11i.
