Experts,

$ free -mh

             total       used       free     shared buff/cache  available

Mem:          187G        85G       1.1G        26G       100G        74G

Swap:          17G       234M        17G


1) Any big difference between available and free ?

2) Can we release cached memory without stopping oracle DB Instances ?

3) Following below oracle database instances are running on this Server !

>>

$ ps -ef | grep pmon

oracle  91842 83958 0 00:04 pts/2  00:00:00 grep --color=auto pmon

grid   210603   1 0 Nov19 ?    00:02:07 asm_pmon_+ASM

oracle  218771   1 0 Nov19 ?    00:07:17 ora_pmon_VIAS
