Hi,

Check the Oracle Reference Guide for the differences. Here is a query to monitor their usage:

SQL> r
  1  SELECT * FROM v$resource_limit
  2* WHERE resource_name IN ('sessions', 'processes')

RESOURCE_NAME        CURRENT_UTILIZATION MAX_UTILIZATION INITIAL_AL LIMIT_VALU
-------------------- ------------------- --------------- ---------- ----------
processes                             20              24        150        150
sessions                              23              31        170        170


Best regards.

Frank

hi.

PROCESS PARAMETER SHOWS NO. OF ORACLE PROCESSES RUN AT A TIME.. MEANS HERE ONLY 200 PROCESSES RUNS AT A PARTICULAR TIME.

SESSION PARAMETER TELLS U MAX NO OF SESSION WHICH WILL ALLOW TO CONNECT WITH THE DATABASE..

HOPE U WILL GET SOME THING FROM THIS.
