The DBA SGA Memory Allocation report provides a high-level summary of the System Global Area (SGA) configuration. It displays the current size of major memory components such as the Buffer Cache, Shared Pool, Large Pool, and Java Pool. This report is essential for verifying memory settings, especially when using Automatic Shared Memory Management (ASMM) or Automatic Memory Management (AMM).
- Buffer Cache: Memory for caching data blocks.
- Shared Pool: Memory for the library cache (SQL plans), dictionary cache, and PL/SQL code.
- Large Pool: Used for RMAN backups, parallel query message buffers, and UGA (in shared server mode).
- Java Pool: Memory for the JVM within the database.
- Log Buffer: Memory for redo entries.
GV$SGAINFO: Provides accurate, dynamic sizing information for SGA components, reflecting the current state after any automatic resizing operations.
- Configuration Audit: Verifying that the
SGA_TARGETorSGA_MAX_SIZEparameters are being respected. - Tuning ASMM: Checking if Oracle is "stealing" memory from the Buffer Cache to feed a growing Shared Pool (a common symptom of literal SQL flooding).
- OOM Troubleshooting: Investigating ORA-04031 (unable to allocate bytes of shared memory) errors by seeing which component is consuming the space.
