Hi,

Where could I find the information about setting the amount
of shared memory on various operating systems ?

Is it available somewhere in PG docs ?

My interest is in Linux and Solaris.

   Instruction for Solaris.

   1. Read man -s 4 system

   2. Note - /etc/system is kernel config file that have been read once on
every boot.

   3. Log in as root

   4. MAKE BACKUP of your /etc/system

   5. Edit /etc/system. Add or modify:
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmin=100
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmni=500
set shmsys:shminfo_shmseg=100
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmax=2147483648

   6. Save the file

   7. Reboot.

   8 In case of boot failure, use backup file (more info in man -s 4 system).

Oleg.
