Re: Hugepages question with multiple instances on 1 host

I understand it is provided in Solaris.  Question is: how automatic is 
it then?
As in: all Oracle instances grab 4M pagesize for SGA?
Or does the Oracle executable have to be pre-configured with the wanted 
size using ppgsz(1)?
Is 4M the default size?  And is there an option to say some instances 
use larger page sizes, some don't?
