Andrew,
>My sysadmin says 8g swap is plenty. Before I ask him to show me his
Oracle dba credentials, can someone point me to a somewhere that has
more informatiion on this.
I runned a 9207 RAC on Solaris 9 64bits, with vxvm also and suncluster
3.0 (2-node), DISM configured and used, and have in the past problem due
to swap shortage.
Sorry I cannot tell you specifics abot Solaris 10 (for the shmmax
settings), but based on the previous experience, allocating 12 Gbyte of
swap for a 16 Gbyte node is not unreasonable at all.
If the sysadm gets picky about this, tell him to put in writing the
decision :-)
