rman failure ORA-04030 indicates memory issue 2004-10-05 - By Paula_Stankus@(protected)
Okay,
-one backup doesn 't work because it is getting an error indicating a
connection problem but I KNOW IT ISN 'T A CONNECTION PROBLEM
-one backup doesn 't work because I get the ORA-04030 (See ORA-04030.ora-code.com) error
-I know that this is indicating an issue with the user getting enough
user process memory - i.e. pga. However, the aggregate target should be
across all instances. I am playing with pga_aggregate_target using
alter system ...but to no avail.
-I also feel that my ulimits should likely be set to unlimited and I am
wondering if this is playing into this at all.
-Finally, I am wondering if the sga_max_size (unrelated to this
particular error but very scary) and this Sun bug is an issue.

I also ran across some references that indicate there is a problem with
dynamic memory allocation on Solaris 8/9 and a bug patch. I found that
users had disabled sga_max_size (i.e. dynamic sga) until the patch was
applied. =20
Has anyone else dealt with this issue? =20

Also noticed the following: process stack was set to 8192 and nofiles
to 256. I am wondering if these should be set to unlimited as I
understand they would only be used if needed. Also, if I use a ulimit
to reset the values when do these settings take place? Immediately?? =20
time(seconds) unlimited
file(blocks) unlimited
data(kbytes) unlimited

I am also wondering if the batch processes are somehow holding onto
memory. Some appeared to fail and they should have completed long
before the backup failed.

Rman fails with:
I notice that=20
A. A number of batch processes were added to database and likely using
a good deal of "sort " area as large batch processes often do
B. Volume of data added last night.
C. This error occurred along with another error:
ORA-12540 (See ORA-12540.ora-code.com): TNS:internal limit restriction exceeded
ORA-04030 (See ORA-04030.ora-code.com): out of process memory when trying to allocate 524824 bytes
(pga heap,KSFQ Buffers)
I looked at TOP on Solaris while running the job that failed with
ORA-04030 (See ORA-04030.ora-code.com) and out of 8 Gb, 4Gb of RAM were still showing as available.
I decreased the filesperset in rman from 10 to 4 and am concerned with
the degradation of runtime for my backup processes.
The pga_aggregate_target is set at pga_aggregate_target=3D1610612736
sga_max_size=3D2147483648
processes=3D150.
I plan to look at the pga_aggregate_target related views. I also
noticed in the alert.log the following:
ORA-07445 (See ORA-07445.ora-code.com): exception encountered: core dump [0000000101D51DF0] [SIGBUS]
[Object
specific hardware error] [0xFFFFFFFF7CA9FE90] [] []
Along with a trace file with a specific SQL statement. =20
Question: How appropriate/inappropriate are the pga_aggregate_target,
sga_max_size given 8Gb RAM and that this is the only database on the
system?
