Out of HD memory

have dual HD. the primary HD is running our of memory with 1.01 GB left; thus having difficulties with software upgrades.
the 2nd one is wide open with 60 GB left.
How can fix this without having startup of application problems?
thank you

ORA 04030 Out of process memory error

Dear experts,
I know there are multiple discussions around this error and I have been reading through most of them in the past one week or so, but looks like we are running out of options or are missing the color altogether. Ok, we are getting ORA-04030 - out of process memory while allocating....while one of our batch process runs in the night. It simply tries to insert/update to a table. Our installation is 11.2.0.1.0 with no RAC configuration and on 64-bit AIX having 6 cores, 12 CPUs and 16 GB memory.
We have checked the Workarea_Size_Policy is set to be as Auto so Oracle decides how much memory to allocate to PGA automatically on run-time based on the demand. And based on the AWR report it doesnt look like we are anywhere near the country having a PGA-deficit!! I am attaching the AWR report in a word document here for your reference.
Also attached below are the configurations and the ulimit values.
IKBTRN1> show parameter workarea;
NAME                                 TYPE                             VALUE
workarea_size_policy                 string                           AUTO
oraipeikbtrn1:/home/oracle-> ulimit -a
time(seconds)        unlimited
file(blocks)         unlimited
data(kbytes)         unlimited
stack(kbytes)        4194304
memory(kbytes)       unlimited
coredump(blocks)     unlimited
nofiles(descriptors) unlimited
threads(per process) unlimited
processes(per user) unlimited
Now, nothing seems to have contributed to the out of process memory issue from Oracle standpoint. I would be happy to be proved wrong here, if I am wrong.
So, whats going wrong here? A possible memory leak which we cannot zero down to, a OS memory limit or something else?
Seeking expert's advise on this, and also sincerely appreciate your time in looking at this.
Thanks.
P.S - I am pasting the whole AWR report since there is no 'upload file' option here that I can see.

I couldnt add the rest of the report here since it is telling me I have exceeded 30000 characters. If you want to see the full report, please email me at [email protected]

Unless your database is strictly a DSS-type of database, your AWR report exposes loads of issues with it. And I think none of the time during the AWR window was spent on database. Look at the DB time (with all those multi cores) compared with the elapsed time of the AWR.
As you are on 11g, why not make use of MEMORY_TARGET (a single parameter to manage both SGA and PGA)? If you are already on it, ignore this as I can't see it anywhere. If not, get rid of SGA_TARGET and PGA_AGGREGATE_TARGET and replace it with a single MEMORY_TARGET parameter. However you may have a minimum threshold set for different SGA pools so that they won't shrink beyond that point.
Having said that, setting MEMORY_TARGET is not a guarantee to avoid ORA-4030. Just a single bad PL/SQL code could go and exploit the untunable part of your process memory and even go and blow up the physical memory. If you are using FORALL and BULK load, see if you can cut it down into few chunks rather than running as a single process.
What does your V$PGASTAT say?

ORA-04030: out of process memory when using Java Stored Procedures

Hello,
I have a problem using Java Stored Procedures in Oracle 10g.
My Java application performs http posts to a webservice and the response is parsed in order to populate some DB tables.
There is a scheduled job which calls the Java Stored Procedure every x minutes.
No matter of the 'x minutes' values - after about 160 - 200 calls I get this error:
ORA-04030: out of process memory when trying to allocate 1048620 bytes (joxp heap,f:OldSpace)
ORA-04030: out of process memory when trying to allocate 2097196 bytes (joxp heap,f:OldSpace)
The job stops just while is posting the http request. The weird thing is that almost each time the first http post request I get this error:
java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused
     at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.socketConnect(Native Method)
     at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.doConnect(PlainSocketImpl.java:305)

     at org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpClient.executeMethod(HttpClient.java:323)
and the second try works fine.
So, The out of process memory occured each time just before getting such an error, and I suspect to be a connection between these errors.
Tech details:
1. OS: WinXP
2. Oracle 10.1.0.2.0
3. To perform http post I use HttpClient 3.1 from Apache.
4. I checked the http connection to be closed each time, and this is done.
5. I checked the oracle statement and connection to be closed each time and this is done
6. The JVM error (logged in .trc files of Oracle) is:

Can be a problem with JVM threading under Oracle ?

The server prcess failed to allocate more memory for large objects ( in Oldspace).
If you Google ORA-04030, you will see several recommendations to work around this.
The Java VM in the database already has HttpClient, i don't know why you are loading the Apache HttpClient but this might not be the surce of the problem.

I've updated my Macbook Pro and my iMac with Maverick, updating the various apps. On my Macbook, everything functions perfectly. On my iMac, I get the Your System has Run out of Application Memory, and it's based our Mail, the only app not updated. Ideas?

Maverick and Your System message
I've updated my Macbook Pro and my iMac with Maverick, updating the various apps (Pages, Aperture, iPhoto, Numbers & iMovie, too) in the process.
On my Macbook, everything functions perfectly. On my iMac, I get the Your System has Run out of Application Memory message. But it's not Calendar, it's Mail that not only won't open, but when it does now, it takes the entire system out with it.
I open Safari, and it works. I open Firefox, and it works and Safari still works. I open Calendar and it works, Safari and Firefox continue to work. I open Reminders, and everything still works.
I open Aperture, and it opens Finder instead, showing the 3.5 update that was installed two days ago (and Aperture has functioned), but doesn't seem to update the app; after about 20 seconds the update disappears and I can now open Aperture and it shows I'm now opening the updated Aperture, which it didn't show before.
I click on Mail, and the cursor spins for ten minutes. The mail window finally opens, but the cursor spins and does not connect to upload new mail, and I finally Force Quit Mail. Since the Maverick update, even though Mail was not updated (and maybe because Mail was not updated), I have been able to receive emails twice, and then the program crashed.
Besides the Aperture app, Pages didn't fully update on the iMac, and I had to remove the old Pages icon from the dock after the new program loaded up from Applications.
Any ideas?

When playing games on facebook, I often get the message "virtual memory too low, is being increased" Is there something I can do to clean out the "virtual memory" to avoid this?

As mentioned in my question above, it happens usually during playing games. I wondered if there were someway to clean out the virtual memory, as opposed to it "increasing" continually and overloading my memory in general. You are speaking with a computer novice for the most part, so I am unfamiliar with a lot. I do do updates and general maintenance on the computer, but is that enough for this issue?

Physical memory is the memory that is installed on your computer as real memory. To be able to run programs that require more memory and more programs at the same time (via time sharing and task switching) it is also possible to move (swap) currently not needed code and data to disk to make room for other programs and data. The total memory available for programs is the Virtual Memory.
You can check the Virtual Memory settings here: Control Panel > System > Advanced > Performance > Settings (Advanced tab)<br />
Windows can manage more memory then is physical available and that memory is stored in a page file on your hard drive.
If the size of that file is not large enough and all available memory is in use then you get the Virtual Memory is low warning.
Make sure that you have at least 1 GB or the recommended setting for the Virtual Memory.
If you have less than 1 GB physical memory installed on your computer then if possible add more memory.

Mavericks Mail Kernel System Has Run Out of Application Memory

I have a new Mavericks late 2013 MBP. When I got the computer, I used Migration Assistant to transfer everything from my late 2008 MacBook to the new MBP. Now when I launch Mail, my memory use skyrockets and within a minute or so, I get a "run out of application memory" error message. Soon after the computer stops working until I reboot. Activity Monitor shows Memory Pressure at its redline max, Virtual Memory at about 70 GB, Swap Used 20 GB, Compressed 10 MB. The processes using all the memory are kernel-task 10 GB and mds_stores 5 GB. However, Spotlight is fully indexed and mds is inactive until I launch Mail.
Interestingly, it happens even if I quit Mail immediately after launching it - the Mail window doesn't even need to open; the memory ust still climbs. But it only happens with Mail; all other applications work fine. Also, it does not happen if I boot in Safe Mode or if I log in using a different user account.
I have spend many hours on the phone with the Apple tech guys, they sent log files to Apple engineering, and none can figure this out. Their solution is to work around by creating a new user and transfer files over - not an elegant solution...
I ran the diagnostic suggested by Link Davis; results copied below. I also ran the Etresoft diagnostic both before and after launching Mail. Results also copied below.
I am guessing that a 3rd party application in my user area causes Spotlight to loose control, when Mail is launched, perhaps trying to index 10,000 emails, but I really have no idea!
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

Have you looked into Activity Monitor utility to see what system resources exist and how they are being allocated to applications, the OS X, and other background functions?
You could boot in SafeBoot (shift key held through startup) and run Disk Utility> repair disk permissions. That can tell you a few things about your hard disk drive, capacities, and it may not hurt to repair disk permissions. Restart normally when done.
Or try & boot from the Install DVD and use the version of Disk Utility in there to attempt to 'repair disk' while the HDD is unmounted. Then choose Startup manager to boot from the HDD and ignore the DVD on a restart.
Is your computer as listed, a PowerPC (pre-intel architecture)
Apple product, with a G4/G5 CPU from before 2006? If so,
a host could move the discussion from this Intel area.
Without more information, a failure of traction results from speculation.
Is your computer still running OS X 10.5.3, or is that 10.5.8+ now?
Good luck & happy computing!

Since I installed Mavericks, the system says it run out of applications memory

I only have opened Finder (no any other app) but my Mac says "the system has run out of application memory". I don't know what the problem is.
I have a Late-2011 Macbook Pro with 8 GB of RAM. When I enter to "Activity Monitor" I can see that a process called "mds" use a lot of GB of RAM and 100% of my CPU and also kernel_task uses like 5 to 6 GB of my 8 GB of RAM. I reinstalled the OS and still have the problem.
If someone can help me, I will be very grateful.
Thanks in advance and sorry for my english.

I have a brand new MacBook Pro. I downloaded Mavericks, and I'm moving my information from my old MacBook Pro via Carbonite to my 2 day old MacBook Pro.. Carbonite tells me to continue to use my system...When I open Safari after a short period of time I get the Out of application memory dialog box. I also use a Brand New IMac which is not having any problems but am I not using Carbonite until I figure out what the problem is. So I went to the Activity Monitor and I see Safari using 8.5 GB of memory. What do I need to do to fix this problem of Out of application memory. As soon as I "Quit Process" for safari in the Activity Monitor everything drops back to normal...example kenel_task went to 1.1 GB. Note Mozella only uses 126 MB of memory. IS the Issue Safari or something else?

How to find out how many memory is used for NIO

is there any way to find out how many memory is used for nio in a virtual machine. ?
I know that is possible to find out how many total, free and used memory the heap has by using java.lang.Runtime#totalMemory...
We sometimes expect errors that it is not possible to create any more connections because of the NIO memory size but the heap is still ok. Today we had an error where 170mbytes of heap where left but it was not possible to create new tcp connections because of an exception:
javax.naming.NamingException: java.net.SocketException: No buffer space available (maximum connections reached?): connect
The number of TCP-Connections was ok (<500).
It would be very nice if someone knows how to find out how the amount of memory that NIO buffers use can be determined within Java 1.4.
best regards
benjamin

We have to use 1.4.2_03. This is because of the special environment we are running on.
We did also figured out that there are some NIO Memory Bugs but we since we are not allowed to upgrade the used Virtual Machine we have to live with these errors.
The problem that we currently have is within a Server and because of this circumstance we are trying to find a workaround or way to find out how many memory is allocated. If we would know how to get this value we could restart the servers as a workaround after the value reaches a threshold.
We are also very sad that we can`t easily upgrade/update to the latest 1.4.2 Version or the newest 1.5 to get rid of these NIO Bugs!

'Your system has run out of application memory'?!

I've seen many users experiencing this same problem throughout the community, but none of the fixes have given me a permanent solution. Details of the machine are below, as well as what happens when the problem hits/triggers.
MBP Retina running OS X Yosemite 10.10.2 (occurred in previous versions as well, thought the latest update would help but it didn't)
15-Inches Mid 2014 with 16 GB of Ram
Been using this Mac for good 6 months now, and one fine day of normal usage the whole system seems really laggy and slow and all of a sudden i'm unable to access anything and barely move my mouse. Then, a window pops out, telling me "Your system has run out of application memory", gracefully showing me that I have to force quit all my programmes for me to just stare at my desktop in utter disappointment.
I've been using Yosemite for awhile now (updated few days since the release) and haven't encountered any major issues, this being the first. Reading through many threads many have said that the problem lies with opening the Mail app, yet I haven't touched that app in months. I've also tried resetting the PRAM on my machine when it happens and the problem comes back again after several minutes of normal usage (iTunes, App Store). Checking the memory usage with the Memory Clean app, it tells me I'm down to a measly '15.58 MB' of memory, and it justfluctuates at that until I give it a restart again. This can't keep happening - I can barely use the Mac for 10 minutes without having to restart it, only to be able to use it only again for another 10 minutes.
Opening Activity Monitor tells me that mds_stores is the main root of the problem, yet I can't seem to shut the process down. I've googled and many say that mds_stores is spotlight indexing, but taking up all 16 GB of ram? That shouldn't be the case. Is there a fix to this? Does Apple know of its existence?
Included some screenshots below:

Step 1
These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
syslog -F '$Time $Message' -k Sender mdworker -o -k Message Rne Norm -k Sender mds | tail | pbcopy
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing the key combination command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear.
The output of the command will be automatically copied to the Clipboard. If the command produced no output, the Clipboard will be empty. Paste into a reply to this message.
The Terminal window doesn't show the output. Please don't copy anything from there.
If any personal information appears in the output, anonymize before posting, but don’t remove the context.
Step 2
Enter the following command as in Step 1 and post the output:
mdutil -as 2>&- | pbcopy
You can then quit Terminal.
Step 3
Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Terminal. In the Console window, look under the heading DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION on the left for crash reports related to Spotlight. If you don't see that heading, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar. A Spotlight crash report has a name beginning in "mds" or "mdworker" and ending in ".crash". Select the most recent such report, if any, from the System and User subcategories and post the entire contents—the text, please, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
Please don’t post any other kind of diagnostic report, such as hang logs—they're very long and not helpful.

Ora-04030 out of process memory

Hai All,
My database is oracle 9i(9.2.0.1.0)in AIX
when I run one query from my oracle developer suite session then 'ora-04030 out of process memory error when trying to allocate 38424 bytes (hash-join subh,klcqc:kllcqslt)'
This same query when I run from sqlplus it works fine.
how this happened ?
Please help...urgent..

The problem is in unsufficient memory for a hash join.
The questions are:
- do the explain plans differ, that only one session has this problem
- how do you manage the PGA (auto/manual), what are relevant parameter settings (pga_aggregate_target / hash_area_size etc.)
- do you use shared server - allocation methos differ for this case.
If you use manual pga tuning (or perhaps shared server), then increasing hash_area_size might help. But without relevant info, it's shooting in the dark.

Database Error: DBD::Oracle::db do failed: ORA-04030: out of process memory

Hi
I have a stored procedure that uses the XMLQuery function (SELECT XMLQuery( '......' RETURNING CONTENT) FROM dual; ) to extract data from 3 different tables and store the xml file in XML DB. This store procedure was running fine for a long time until 2 weeks ago where I started seeing the following error:
Database Error: DBD::Oracle::db do failed: ORA-04030: out of process memory when trying to allocate 92 bytes (koh dur heap d,qmxtkWriteXobToOpn:heap)
Currently I have 16,000 records. I am not sure what is going on, the size of the previous successful output xml file is about 2M. I also noticed when the stored procedure runs with 3G of system memory available, it basically used up all the memory and cpu time. The store proc consistently dies after 3.5 hour and spits out the ORA-04030 out of process memory error.
Does anyone have any suggestion what to look for or what parameters I need to set? Thanks

Unless your database is strictly a DSS-type of database, your AWR report exposes loads of issues with it. And I think none of the time during the AWR window was spent on database. Look at the DB time (with all those multi cores) compared with the elapsed time of the AWR.
As you are on 11g, why not make use of MEMORY_TARGET (a single parameter to manage both SGA and PGA)? If you are already on it, ignore this as I can't see it anywhere. If not, get rid of SGA_TARGET and PGA_AGGREGATE_TARGET and replace it with a single MEMORY_TARGET parameter. However you may have a minimum threshold set for different SGA pools so that they won't shrink beyond that point.
Having said that, setting MEMORY_TARGET is not a guarantee to avoid ORA-4030. Just a single bad PL/SQL code could go and exploit the untunable part of your process memory and even go and blow up the physical memory. If you are using FORALL and BULK load, see if you can cut it down into few chunks rather than running as a single process.
What does your V$PGASTAT say?

Dear experts,
I am getting this error with the EBS 11i database during the running of the system specially in the rush hour of the work day leads to disconnect between the database server and client:
ORA-04030: out of process memory when trying to allocate 917536 bytes (joxcx callheap,ioc_allocate ufree)

This error is expected, especially if enough memory is not allocated and the system is heavily loaded, as it seems to be in your case. Pl see this MOS Doc for possible resolution
