alter system set _ash_size=512m

Hi Expert

My database 11.2.0.3 in AIX

Getting the following errors in alert.log

Active Session History (ASH) performed an emergency flush. This may mean that ASH is undersized. If emergency flushes are a recurring issue, you may consider increasing ASH size by setting the value of _ASH_SIZE to a sufficiently large value. Currently, ASH size is 266338304 bytes. Both ASH size and the total number of emergency flushes since instance startup can be monitored by running the following query:

select total_size,awr_flush_emergency_count from v$ash_info;

Then I tried increase the value and getting error

SQL> alter system set _ash_size=512m;

alter system set _ash_size=512m

ERROR at line 1:

ORA-00911: invalid character
