2、 问题的解释
在官方文档中，有好多地方提到这个错误，可以通过官方文档进一步的了解这个报错的解释，以便于更快更准确更透彻的解决问题
打开官方文档的error messages标签，可以看到有关错误代码的解释
ORA-00845: MEMORY_TARGET not supported on this system
Cause: The MEMORY_TARGET parameter was not supported on this operating system or /dev/shm was not sized correctly on Linux.
Action: Refer to documentation for a list of supported operating systems. Or, size /dev/shm to be at least the SGA_MAX_SIZE on each Oracle instance running on the system.
或者利用官方文档的搜索功能，搜索错误代码，也可以找到相应的解释和解决办法
Setting Memory Target at Instance Startup on Linux
Starting with Oracle Database 11g Release 1 (11.1), Oracle provides the option of automatically managing SGA and PGA with a combined MEMORY_TARGETparameter without having to set SGA_TARGET and PGA_AGGREGATE_TARGET explicitly. This is supported on Linux, Windows, Solaris, HPUX, and AIX (reference Bug 7258378).
If you see the ORA-00845 error reported on Linux machines at Oracle instance startup when using the MEMORY_TARGET parameter, then check the size of /dev/shm. If /dev/shm is not configured, then mount it sized to be at least the value of MEMORY_TARGET. If /dev/shm is configured but the amount of available space reported (through df -k /dev/shm) is less than MEMORY_TARGET, then free the space or mount a larger /dev/shm to satisfy the MEMORY_TARGET size. Note that if you set theMEMORY_MAX_TARGET parameter greater than MEMORY_TARGET, then ensure that /dev/shm is sized to be at least the value of MEMORY_MAX_TARGET.
Memory Target for Oracle Database InstancesRunning Database Configuration Assistant (DBCA) defaults to this Automatic Memory Management option. In the case of upgrade or manual database creation,MEMORY_TARGET can be specified in the initialization parameter file.
如上的内容就详细的解释了该错误是由于/dev/shm小于MEMORY_TARGET的大小，或者是/dev/shm根本就没有挂载，如果同时设置了MEMORY_TARGET和MENORY_MAX_TARGET，那么/dev/shm至少必须和MEMORY_MAX_TARGET的大小一致
Insufficient Memory Target Errors
On Linux systems, if the operating system /dev/shm mount size is too small for the Oracle system global area (SGA) and program global area (PGA), then you encounter the following error:
ORA-00845: MEMORY_TARGET not supported on this system.
The cause of this error is an insufficient /dev/shm allocation. The total memory size of the SGA and PGA, which sets the initialization parameter MEMORY_TARGETor MEMORY_MAX_TARGET, cannot be greater than the shared memory file system (/dev/shm) on your operating system.
Background
Automatic Memory Management (AMM) has been updated in Oracle ASM 11g Release 2. It manages both the SGA and PGA together. It is managed by the Memory Manager Process (MMAN). In this release, note the following changes to AMM:
It uses MEMORY_TARGET instead of SGA_TARGET
It uses MEMORY_MAX_TARGET instead of SGA_MAX_SIZE (defaults to MEMORY_TARGET)
It uses memory allocated by /dev/shm
If the value of max_target is set to a value greater than the allocation for the /dev/shm size, then you may encounter the error ORA-00845: MEMORY_TARGET not supported on this system.
Note:
An ORA-00845 error can also occur if /dev/shm is not properly mounted. To rule out this possibility, run the command df -k to ensure that /dev/shm is mounted. For example:$ df -k
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
shmfs 6291456 832356 5459100 14% /dev/shm
Solution
Increase the /dev/shm mountpoint size.
For example:
# mount -t tmpfs shmfs -o size=7g /dev/shm
To make this change persistent across system restarts, add an entry in /etc/fstab similar to the following:
shmfs /dev/shm tmpfs size=7g 0
如上的内容不仅讲出了错误的原因，而且还大概的说了一下在oracle 11g中的自动内存管理，并且给出了该错误的解决的命令
3、问题的深入探究，到底什么是 /dev/shm
首先来看一下linux系统中已经挂载的文件系统
[oracle@night ~]$ df -Th
文件系统 类型 容量 已用 可用 已用% 挂载点
/dev/sda2 ext3 16G 11G 3.9G 74% /
/dev/sda3 ext3 1.6G 37M 1.4G 3% /tmp
/dev/sda1 ext3 99M 12M 83M 13% /boot
tmpfs tmpfs 252M 0 252M 0% /dev/shm
可以看出我已经挂载了/dev/shm，但是该分区的文件系统并不是普通的文件系统类型，而是tmpfs文件系统类型，那么什么是tmpfs格式的文件系统类型呢？
tmpfs是linux的一种临时文件系统，它的大小是不固定的，默认的大小是实际内存的一半。

When might a full table scan be faster than using an index in MySQL?
Apr 09, 2025 am 12:05 AM
Full table scanning may be faster in MySQL than using indexes. Specific cases include: 1) the data volume is small; 2) when the query returns a large amount of data; 3) when the index column is not highly selective; 4) when the complex query. By analyzing query plans, optimizing indexes, avoiding over-index and regularly maintaining tables, you can make the best choices in practical applications.
Can I install mysql on Windows 7
Apr 08, 2025 pm 03:21 PM
Yes, MySQL can be installed on Windows 7, and although Microsoft has stopped supporting Windows 7, MySQL is still compatible with it. However, the following points should be noted during the installation process: Download the MySQL installer for Windows. Select the appropriate version of MySQL (community or enterprise). Select the appropriate installation directory and character set during the installation process. Set the root user password and keep it properly. Connect to the database for testing. Note the compatibility and security issues on Windows 7, and it is recommended to upgrade to a supported operating system.
Explain InnoDB Full-Text Search capabilities.
Apr 02, 2025 pm 06:09 PM
InnoDB's full-text search capabilities are very powerful, which can significantly improve database query efficiency and ability to process large amounts of text data. 1) InnoDB implements full-text search through inverted indexing, supporting basic and advanced search queries. 2) Use MATCH and AGAINST keywords to search, support Boolean mode and phrase search. 3) Optimization methods include using word segmentation technology, periodic rebuilding of indexes and adjusting cache size to improve performance and accuracy.
MySQL: Simple Concepts for Easy Learning
Apr 10, 2025 am 09:29 AM
MySQL is an open source relational database management system. 1) Create database and tables: Use the CREATEDATABASE and CREATETABLE commands. 2) Basic operations: INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE and SELECT. 3) Advanced operations: JOIN, subquery and transaction processing. 4) Debugging skills: Check syntax, data type and permissions. 5) Optimization suggestions: Use indexes, avoid SELECT* and use transactions.
Difference between clustered index and non-clustered index (secondary index) in InnoDB.
Apr 02, 2025 pm 06:25 PM
The difference between clustered index and non-clustered index is: 1. Clustered index stores data rows in the index structure, which is suitable for querying by primary key and range. 2. The non-clustered index stores index key values and pointers to data rows, and is suitable for non-primary key column queries.
Can mysql and mariadb coexist
Apr 08, 2025 pm 02:27 PM
MySQL and MariaDB can coexist, but need to be configured with caution. The key is to allocate different port numbers and data directories to each database, and adjust parameters such as memory allocation and cache size. Connection pooling, application configuration, and version differences also need to be considered and need to be carefully tested and planned to avoid pitfalls. Running two databases simultaneously can cause performance problems in situations where resources are limited.
The relationship between mysql user and database
Apr 08, 2025 pm 07:15 PM
In MySQL database, the relationship between the user and the database is defined by permissions and tables. The user has a username and password to access the database. Permissions are granted through the GRANT command, while the table is created by the CREATE TABLE command. To establish a relationship between a user and a database, you need to create a database, create a user, and then grant permissions.
RDS MySQL integration with Redshift zero ETL
Apr 08, 2025 pm 07:06 PM
Data Integration Simplification: AmazonRDSMySQL and Redshift's zero ETL integration Efficient data integration is at the heart of a data-driven organization. Traditional ETL (extract, convert, load) processes are complex and time-consuming, especially when integrating databases (such as AmazonRDSMySQL) with data warehouses (such as Redshift). However, AWS provides zero ETL integration solutions that have completely changed this situation, providing a simplified, near-real-time solution for data migration from RDSMySQL to Redshift. This article will dive into RDSMySQL zero ETL integration with Redshift, explaining how it works and the advantages it brings to data engineers and developers.
