    Hi ALL

    My oracle734 database (production) is running on NT4.0

    I have a database(production) on server1

    Now I have to create another database on the same server with different parameters.The old one also should exist.

    PARAMETER OLD NEW

    db_files 20 45

    db_block_buffers 20000 25000

    db_block_size 2k 4k

    shared_pool_size 120mb 120mb


    The RAM on server is :785,824 kb

    Is it ok to create another database on the same server with this much of RAM.What other factors i have to consider?Please let me know.

    Thanks
    Ravi

    I think somebody said here that is ok to have a shared_pool_size <20% of the ram, now if you consider the second db, in the seem logic, <10% of server ram must be ok

    my personal opinion is that 120Mo, for the two servers is the highest you can figure out for each db, so you ok.
    You must pay attention to not outrun the real memory of the machine, so to avoid the disk swaping.

    Anyways, you can issue:

    Select bytes/1024/1024 from v$sgastat where POOL='FREE MEMORY';

    If this value is consistently high over time, another area of SGA needs memory, you may want to decrease SHARED_POOL_SIZE.
