Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Miss Bamima
means what it says. insufficient memory in shared pool. in 8.1.7 (base
release) there is a bug in which fixed memory is leaked but this is usually
a gradual leak exacerbated with usage over time.
in your case it is occurring on database creation i can only assume that your selection of parameters in DBCA has led to some inappropriate init.ora settings. I don't use DBCA so I have no idea what settings it is trying to use but obviously the shared pool was not large enough or became too fragmented too quickly given it's parameter selection.
cheers,

Subject: Miss Bamima
Hi Listers,
Take it easy, I am not gonna introduce some DBA chick (sorry feminists..., just kidding).
While creating a new database in 8.1.7, I received the following error.
ORA-04031: unable to allocate 4096 bytes of shared memory ("shared
pool","unknown object","PL/SQL MPCODE; "BAMIMA BAM BUFFER")
I was creating multipurpose databse with 256 MB RAM with 500 concurrent
users.I abort the process and then again created the database with just 15
concurrent users, and the Miss Bamima vanished and the database got created
successfully. I am sure it has something to do with RAM. Would anybody
please give some lights that what this bamima bam buffer is?
thanks
regards,
Fahd
