Hi All,

This is 8.1.6.3 (32-bit) on Solaris 8. We have been trying to run a transaction on the database
and it is throwing up ORA-4030. The process is indeed a big process and we r getting this
error only while running a particular transaction. On running 'maxmem', we get the following :

		 Memory starts at:     137992 (   21b08)
		Memory ends at:   2147483647 (7fffffff)
		Memory available: 2147345655 (7ffde4f7)

Can anybody help me finding out how to increase the Memory available to more than 2 Gig ?? I think
that this memory limitation is why my process is dying when its grown to circa 2 Gig. Also, do I need to
increase the swap space and bounce the server ?? My swap info is as under :

  swapfile             dev  swaplo blocks   free


/dev/vx/dsk/swapvol 239,8      16 16774704 16774704

/dev/vx/dsk/rootdg/v_swap 239,6      16 34815984 34815984

Any other checks/inputs on this will be highly appreciated as this is a production database and I have
an impatient client.

Thanks,
Samir
