Hi All,
My database is configured to use approx. 4Gb of
memory:
Connected to:
Oracle9i Release 9.2.0.6.0 - 64bit Production
JServer Release 9.2.0.6.0 - Production
SQL> select *
2 from v$sga
3 /
NAME VALUE
-------------------- ----------
Fixed Size 748656
Variable Size 805306368
Database Buffers 3355443200
Redo Buffers 1323008
Yet, Linux is saying there's < 1Gb physical memory in
use and no swap. Where is my database?
(Apologies for the formating)
top - 16:08:21 up 2:17, 4 users, load average:
0.12, 0.11, 0.04
Tasks: 102 total, 1 running, 101 sleeping, 0
stopped, 0 zombie
Cpu(s): 0.4% us, 0.1% sy, 0.0% ni, 99.3% id, 0.2%
wa, 0.0% hi, 0.0% si
Mem: 8169180k total, 906124k used, 7263056k free,
39152k buffers
Swap: 2031608k total, 0k used, 2031608k free,
742984k cached
The database has been up for 2 hours but is very
lightly loaded. Linux version is:
Linux 2.6.9-34.0.1.ELsmp #1 SMP Wed May 17 16:59:36
EDT 2006 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Doesn't Oracle allocate the entire SGA at start-up (or
is on a demand basis?) I'd always understood it to be
the former, in which case why can't I see it in memory
using top?
Thanks for any info
Charlotte
