Yes, but which one?! Is it lack of physical memory?

>I gather that you are running about 8 instances on this machine ,right?

After having made a few of the SGAs smaller, I went back to 12 instances. :)

How can I tell if I am running out of physical memory? Any of the statistics I looked at seemed to indicate that there was plenty of memory available.

P.S. When I try to run sar I get the following message: $ sar
sar: can't open /var/adm/sa/sa23
No such file or directory

I do see a /var/adm/sa/sa16 directory. What does this mean? Received on Wed May 23 2001 - 14:44:14 CDT
