Larry,

What OS? Your process parameter and your shmmni (in UNIX) should be the same.

The affect it will have on your system is that it will allocate the proper memory in the OS.

Regards,
Satar

Subject:        init.ora PROCESS parameter 

	Hi All, 

	Can anyone tell me, how does the PROCESS parameter in the init.ora
file
affect the performance of the database. I can't seem to find any good information
in the 8.1.6 documentation.

        Database is MTS configured.

        My 8.1.6 database init.ora has the following options:

        #processes = 50
#

SMALL
# processes = 100 #
MEDIUM

#processes = 200                                                     # LARGE


	processes  = 800 

	What I have noticed is that, my database will not startup if the
process
value is greater
than 800.

        Thanks for any help you can provide.
larry
