I'm looking around the net right now, trying to figure out how to do what Sebastiano suggested.

On this webpage, it seems this guy changed his shmmax to a much higher number than what it says on my system.

oracle$ cat /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax
33554432
Should I change that to 2147483648? Would I do that by simply doing: echo 2147483648 > /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax?

They have suggestions for boosting everything else up as well, and suggest putting it in a script. Has anybody here done that, and if so, would they mind posting it? I'll put in a link to this thread from the documentation if anybody does so, so that future people with this problem can avoid this.

Thanks!
