Answer 1

This note is from Oracle documentation "Problem Description

You are attempting to create a new database using Oracle Database Configuration Assistant when your server has a very large unused memory. You pick a typical type of database creation and receive the following error:

ORA-27102: out of memory

The database creation fails.

Solution Description

Pick Custom installation and keep on picking default values if you wish to or change them upon your requirements until you reach the page where you have to set your initialization parameters of the newly created database. Lower the numbers of shared_pool_size and block_buffers to a reasonable and appropriate number that can suit your needs as well as your hardware abilities and continue with the creation. The database will be created successfully. Here is a simple formula to assist you in calculating the size of the SGA depending on the values you will be assigning for your initialization parameters in init.ora:

( ( db_block_size * db_block_buffers ) + log_buffer + shared_pool_size + large_pool_size + java_pool_size ) / .9

Explanation

The reason this problem is occuring is because when you have large memory installed on the server and a large segment of this memory is unused, the Oracle Database Configuration Assistant will pick a percentage (roughly 30%) of your unused memory and swap spaces and calculate the SGA to use those 30% of this unused space. This calculated percentage may exceed your server hardware capabilities and may even exceed your requirement on the newly created database."
