Could not update my site

Hi ALL,

Had a very hard time last week, my phone crashed, my laptop hardisk crashed and was loaded with work.

For this reason I was not able to reply to anyone's comments or update my site with latest information. I should be able to do this in a day or two as I have got hold of a spare laptop. Still waiting for the data from my old hard disk to be recovered.

Hi Abhishek,

If a table has a foreign key from another table then this table is called as Child table and the table which is referred is called as Master table.

Hi Anonymous,

As long as you are practicing it does not matter if you are working only on sunday or any other day. I would suggest you to brush through the concepts on a regular basis atleast once in 2 days, And practice sql hands on.

'Linux-x86_64 Error: 28: No space left on device' While trying to start the database -- Error

SQL> startup mount pfile='/tmp/initdlfasp12.ora'
ORA-27102: out of memory
Linux-x86_64 Error: 28: No space left on device


This as you can see is on Linux x86 with 64 bit processor. We got this error after we changed SGA on 10gR2 database. So was sure that this is something to do with the OS.

Parameters to check for this are shmall.

shmall is the total amount of shared memory, in pages, that the system can use at one time.

$cat /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax
53687091200

$ getconf PAGE_SIZE
4096

As per Oracle SHMALL should be set to the total amount of physical RAM divided by page size.

Our system has 64GB memory, so change kernel.shmall = 1024 * 1024 * 1024 * 64 / 4096 = 16777216


Once this value is calculated you can modify Linux system configuration file directly.

$ su - root
vi /etc/sysctl.conf file:
kernel.shmall=16777216

and

# sysctl -p

Once this is done the database was started without any problem.
