For the basics, the CLUVFY utility is a good start; it can check kernel parameters and environment settings. Also you could have a look at chapter 2 of the clusterware manual here: http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/install.102/b14205/presolar.htm#sthref135 That covers OS patches, kernel params, UDP params, and some other stuff... but it's still basic preinstall things that hopefully are already setup right in your environment. But it never hurts to check if you're not sure. "Contention" is pretty broad and it's hard to give some next steps without knowing what the contention is for -- I/O? CPU time? Local locks? Global locks? Network bandwidth? Maybe some others here will have suggestions. -Jeremy On 4/23/07, Gil Cota <gil.cota@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote:
Hi experts, I've got a Solaris 10 AMD Rac Database with a lot o contention problems, could anyone point me to some document do check the env (Solaris Configuration and Oracle Configuration). I've searched but found few information on this platform. Thanks and Regards, Gil Cota
