Hi,

We are trying to create a database using DBCA(Oracle 9.2.0.6) on Red hat Linux enterprise edition 4.0. At first it throw an error "ORA-27123: unable to attach to shared memory segment". We increased the kernel.shmmax to 3GB where it was 2GB previously and other parameters in their default values. Next when we are trying to create the database again with a db_block_size of 8192 bytes it is showing a message that the database can only be mounted on 4096 not on 8192. Please recommend me what to do in this type of situation. Do I need to configure the /etc/sysctl.conf or anything else to enable this facility.

Thanks and Regards,
Sam G

Cut and paste the error number as well as screen texts.

Do you use db_block_buffers?
What is your database block size?
What are all the *size parameters?
Do you use an init.ora or spfile?

Regards
Michel
