If one is to calculate the total memory allocated to an 8i Oracle instance on a UNIX Box from the V$parameter table, which values would you sum on? Also, in this table is a "Type" column. Can you give a brief desc on what these difference types are? Thank you.
 


If you are talking about the SGA, here's a straight from the book approximation:

SGA =((db_block_buffers * block size) +
(shared_pool_size + large_pool_size + java_pool_size + log_buffers) + 1MB

You can also query v$sga to avoid you of the troubles of computing.
