PGA and SGA_MAX_SIZE and SGA_TARGET

pjsiong-JavaNetMay 12 2010 — edited May 18 2010
Hi,
I have an oracle instance with SGA_MAX_SIZE=1G and SGA_TAGET=512m,
PGA_AGGREATE_TARGET=200m,
recently I found some error in alert that some process have memory allocation error,
anyone can tell me, what is the relationship between PGA and SGA_MAX_SIZE and SGA_TARGET?
I know that SGA_TARGET cannot be greater than SGA_MAX_SIZE, but for PGA, where it;s memory allocated from?
Is that true, PGA allocated +SGA_TARGET must <=SGA_MAX_SIZE?

Thanks

Vincent Pek
