Memlock limit too small

onkar.nathJun 19 2013 — edited Jun 20 2013

Hi,

We have Oracle 11gR2 (11.2.0.3) on the server with RHEL 5. Whenever we restart the database, we get below statements in the alert log:

Memlock limit too small: 32768 to accommodate segment size: 16777216

Memlock limit too small: 32768 to accommodate segment size: 16777216

Memlock limit too small: 32768 to accommodate segment size: 16777216

Memlock limit too small: 32768 to accommodate segment size: 16777216

Memlock limit too small: 32768 to accommodate segment size: 16777216

Memlock limit too small: 32768 to accommodate segment size: 2097152

****************** Large Pages Information *****************

Total Shared Global Region in Large Pages = 0 KB (0%)

Large Pages used by this instance: 0 (0 KB)

Large Pages unused system wide = 1536 (3072 MB) (alloc incr 16 MB)

Large Pages configured system wide = 1536 (3072 MB)

Large Page size = 2048 KB

RECOMMENDATION:

  Total Shared Global Region size is 3014 MB. For optimal performance,

  prior to the next instance restart increase the number

  of unused Large Pages by atleast 0 2048 KB Large Pages (0 KB)

  system wide to get 100% of the Shared

  Global Region allocated with Large pages

***********************************************************

Please advise.
