Question Regarding /dev/shm allocation on Weblogic App Server
"Are we wasting half the memory on our weblogic server due to an over allocated /dev/shm file system?"
FYI, I'm only responsible for the Oracle RDBMS portion of this infrastructure, not a Linux or Weblogic admin. Our Web, App, and DB are servers currently running Oracle Linux Server 6.4 on Intel Blades. Just to focus on the app server:
/etc>cat oracle-release
Oracle Linux Server release 6.4/u20/otm/OTMTEST_63/glog/oracle/script8>java weblogic.version
WebLogic Server 10.3.6.0 Tue Nov 15 08:52:36 PST 2011 1441050
