This feature attempts to automatically manage memory usage of the components that make up the System Global Area (SGA).

Use of this feature IS recommended.

If this feature is enabled (SGA_TARGET is non-zero) then the following parameters will be automatically sized. Any non-zero value in the following parameters will be treated as a minimum value.

SHARED_POOL_SIZE
LARGE_POOL_SIZE
JAVA_POOL_SIZE
DB_CACHE_SIZE
STREAMS_POOL_SIZE

Parameters

SGA_TARGET

SGA_MAX_TARGET

Check

SHOW PARAMETER SGA_TARGET

SHOW SPPARAMETER SGA_TARGET

Check

SHOW PARAMETER SGA_MAX_TARGET

SHOW SPPARAMETER SGA_MAX_TARGET

Change

ALTER SYSTEM SET SGA_TARGET='0' SCOPE=spfile;

Restart the database

Or

only if SGA_MAX_TARGET is set at a higher value than MEMORY_TARGETAND SGA_MIN_TARGET is set at a lower value than SGA_TARGET...

ALTER SYSTEM SET SGA_TARGET='0' SCOPE=memory;

ALTER SYSTEM SET SGA_TARGET='0' SCOPE=both;

Change

ALTER SYSTEM SET MEMORY_MAX_TARGET='0' SCOPE=spfile;

Restart the database
