Swap space utilization is increasing after Oracle11gr2 upgrade
Hi
we are using oracle11.5.10.2 on AIX 5.3 and recently upgraded database from oracle9.2.0.8 to Oracle 11gr2 (11.2.0.2)
After upgrade Database i have observed gradually swap space is increasing and it is reaching upto 100%
what could be the reason ?
Please find below message from OEM also
Host operating system was experiencing significant paging but no particular root cause could be detected. Investigate processes that do not belong to this instance running on the host that are consuming significant amount of virtual memory. Also consider adding more physical memory to the host
Thanks
With Regards

What is normal swap space utilization on Solaris 10
Hi all,
I'm running Oracle 11.2 on Solaris 10 on a couple of HP Proliant DL 360 servers.
Both servers have 72G of physical RAM with swap space set to 16G on both of them.
Server A has only one database and total memory free = 30G.

4 daemon 3204K 5912K 0.0% 0:00:00 0.0%We are using zfs file system on both servers (which is pretty much the standard these days on Solaris).
Recently I got an OEM alert that my swap space on server A had crossed the 95% threshhold on one of the servers.
But when I checked the server, I found that the average swap space utilization was 97.45.
In fact, what actually happened was my swap utilization momentarily dropped below 95% and then returned back to its normal range above 95% which caused the alert to be triggered.
So this made me wonder why my swap space utilization was so high on server A, or is this just normal for Solaris (v.10).
Checking with server B, I see that my swap utilization is only at 63.6% (even though server B has much more physical memory in use by the two databases than server A).
Main question is why is swap utilization so high on server A, which is configured the same as server B and with less physical memory actually in use.
Next question is should I be concerned.
When I check vmstat, I do not see any paging in or out or blocked processes.
See below for server A

Realize that SWAP is purely an OS facility; which is 100% external to Oracle.
The OS send little used or idle processes into SWAP when RAM is scarce resource.
The fact that SWAP is being used is not a Bad Thing, in and of itself.

Photoshop CS6 only utilize Intel Graphics after NVIDIA upgrade
Hey
After I upgraded the NVIDIA drivers (320.49) on a laptop with a geforce GT540M card,
photoshop now only displays the graphic device built in on the mainboard, the default
intel 3000. (im in preferences>performance>graphics processor settings)
How to get this to work and have PS utilize the proper graphics card?
Please don't reply "contact nvidia" because they say contact adobe. And
PS is the only software having problems after the upgrade, so I consider
this a PS problem.
Windows 8 + Photoshop Cs6 x64If anyone have the same problem:
I finally figured this out, I had to right click on the PS icon and select
Run with graphics processor>High Performance NVIDIA
And set this as the default card to use. Now it works as it should again, thank god! -
Why does memory usage increase after RAM upgrade
I upgraded my MBP RAM from 4GB to 8GB. I'm not running any additional applications, so I expected machine's RAM usage to remain the same as it was before upgrade.
However, my RAM usage has increased to 4.6 GB. Why does my machine need more RAM now for the same lot of programs?

Memory Usage And Hard Drive Activity Increase After Latest Upgrade
I have upgraded to Firefox 3.6.15 and latest Adobe Flash Player. Then i noticed that plugin-container started to take a lot of memory as much as Firefox itself totaling around 600Mb. Then i see hard drive activity intermittently slowing down my laptop and making it unresponsive for a short period of time. I have 50 tabs open. I have disabled Flash and since then plugin-container takes very little memory and i don't see consistent hard drive activity.
I need Flash and i don't want to disable it. Is there a solution to this?I am seeking solutions for same problem. When playing simple online games such as solitaire my memory usage for the plug in container is 300-600 mb while FireFox may only be 80-120 (with several windows or tabs open of mostly text pages). If I disable Adobe add-ons memory usage is greatly reduced. If I understood correctly it is possible to disable the plugin container and run adobe via the old method and another user thought that would solve the problem. I do not understand how it would make a difference but if you havent found a solution you may want to try it. See these 2 threads in the Mozilla forum:
A question and brief explanation and how to disable plugin container in config
I've previously had problems with Adobe crashing Firefox . At least now with Adobe being in the plugin container Firefox does not crash along with it.
I have another issue - I can sometimes still hear the music from a game after I have exited the game and closed the window. I would like to know how to release the resources used by Adobe - kind of like FireFox's RamBack.
Well, good luck to you (and me!) -

9401696912Need your help.
Many thanks!Check what is using the memory and if that is necessary.
1. can you safely shrink the SGA ? you would need to check the AWR reports, or recommended sizes.
2. can you safely shrink the PGA ? you would need to check the AWR reports, or recommended sizes)
3. can you reduce the number of processes ? (are there lots of idle processes ?)
4. can you tune sql to use less memory ?
If you can't reduce allocated memory, check if you can add RAM to the server / container.
If you still think you need to increase swap, you may need to add another disk (what is /dev/md/dsk/d60 ?). You can easily google for the Solaris commands to add swap, but if you are not familiar with this process I would not recommend you do it by yourself. Ask Oracle Support to provide the commands, and TEST them on a DEV box, followed by reboots etc to confirm it works. -

How can i increase the swap space in solaris 11
On Solaris 10 I use to select how much swap space i need while installing
On Solaris 11 it does it automatically? if it does, how can increase the swapYou can easily create a ZFS volume, see "zfs create -V" for ideas. Then using the swap command you can add that space to your swap. You can also delete swap space with "swap -d" even though that does not delete the underlying ZFS volume.

Why does the old iphoto library still remain after the upgrade? Takes up HUGE space on my laptop
Why does the old iphoto library still remain after the upgrade? Takes up HUGE space on my laptop
Actually, it only looks like it takes up additional space. The file size shown is misleading. When you migrate an iPhoto library to Photos, both libraries will show the media files using hard links. The actual file content of the image files and videos is shared by hard links:
See this linked document: Photos saves disk space by sharing images with your iPhoto or Aperture libraries - Apple Support
You will gain no free storage at all by deleting either the iPhoto Library or the Photos library. So keep both libraries until you are very sure, that Photos is working well on your Mac and your iPhoto library has been migrated correctly. Also, check, if you like the workflow in Photos. It is very different from iPhoto and some iPhoto features are not supported.
There will be no easy way back to iPhoto, if you delete your iPhoto library or the iPhoto application. Apple does not sell it any more. -
Is there a patch planned for the increase in battery use after I upgraded yesterday?
Is there a patch planned for the increase in battery use after I upgraded yesterday? I've closed all the open apps, I'm not using wifi and my battery is going down really quickly.
Restore the phone as NEW. There's no patch needed.

The Solaris 8 Advanced Installation Guide recommends allocating at least 512Mbytes of swap space before upgrading. Is this referring to swap disk or total swap space?
Do I need to allocate more swap space before upgrading to Solaris 8?
Thanks
DIf you are using the "Installation" cd with Solaris 8 then it requires a minimum of 512 to store the "installer" in swap so it can do the installation. If you forego the use of the Installer CD and start the Installation with Disk 1 of 2 then you don't have to worry about swap issues. The Advanced Installation Guide seems to indicate that you should use the WebStart Installer but it is not needed.
If you are doing an upgrade then it will use what you already have set up as a swap slice. If you are doing an initial install then you can make swap whatever you want.
