Shared Memory

These definitions apply to shared memory:

Parameter	Description
shmem	The shmem value must be 1 to enable shared memory.
shmmax/project.max-shm-memory	The value of shmmax (project.max-shm-memory) represents the maximum size, in bytes, of a single shared memory segment. The default value provided with the system should suffice. Other software packages, such as Oracle, might require an increase in this value.
shmmni/project.max-shm-id	The value of shmmni (project.max-shm-id) represents the maximum number of shared memory segments throughout the system. For JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, enable 20 per instance of the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne server software running on the system. This requirement is in addition to the system default value and the requirements of other software.
shmseg	The value of shmseg represents the maximum number of shared memory segments to which any one process can attach at a given moment. The default value provided with the system should suffice. Note: This parameter was removed in Solaris 10.
