Changing soft limits for oracle user

edited May 23, 2012 8:26PM in Linux Operating System (MOSC) 1 commentAnswered

Hi,

We have a Linux 5.5 database server where oracle 11g is running. We need to increase the nproc and nofile soft limit for user oracle.

The question we have is that once we make the change in the limits.conf file and save it, would the changes be available to oracle right away OR would that require a database restart?

Thanks

Howdy, Stranger!
