I am trying to configure an Oracle 9.2.0.5 data warehouse database on Windows 2003 to use VLM. I have 4G of memory on this machine. I have configured the 3GB switch in the boot.ini, changed my db_cache to db_block_buffers, added the USE_INDIRECT_DATA_BUFFERS=3D TRUE parameter, rebooted the server and no matter what I set db_block_buffers to I get this error on two out of three machines. I can' t figure out the difference. OS-Error: (OS 8) Not enough storage is available to process this command The reason we are doing this is that I am getting an out-of-process memory error while running our etl job. I have forestalled this error by reducing the db_cache size to .9 G from 1 G. PGA aggregate target is 1 G. =20 My memory is allocated as follows: Total System Global Area 1430858356 bytes Fixed Size 457332 bytes Variable Size 452984832 bytes Database Buffers 973078528 bytes Redo Buffers 4337664 bytes Where do I start looking from here?
