Configuring Kernel Parameters on Oracle Solaris
These topics explain how to configure kernel parameters manually for Oracle Solaris if you cannot complete them using the fixup scripts.
- Minimum Parameter Settings for Installation
Use this table to set parameters manually if you cannot use the fixup scripts. - Checking Shared Memory Resource Controls
Use theprctlcommand to make runtime interrogations of and modifications to the resource controls associated with an active process, task, or project on the system. - Configuring Additional Shared Memory Identifiers Limit
Starting with 18c, on Oracle Solaris systems, Oracle Database uses a new method of sharing memory among a group of processes, also known as Managed Global Areas (MGA). The operating system memory allocation mechanism for this new method is Optimized Shared Memory (OSM). - Displaying and Changing Kernel Parameter Values
Use these procedures to display the current value specified for resource controls and to change them if necessary: - Setting UDP and TCP Kernel Parameters Manually
If you do not use a Fixup script or CVU to set ephemeral ports, then set TCP/IP ephemeral port range parameters to provide enough ephemeral ports for the anticipated server workload.
