while installing rac in zones we had a strange issue
when we tried to install the db with an sga > 4gb it gave a nice
ORA-27102
out of memory execption
we checked the project parameter and everything seemed ok….
execpt of the process.max-address-space
for some strange reason it was on 4Gb no mather to what we put it …..
STRANGE
after lots of investigation it seemed that ulimit -v was called from a .bash_profile which limited the shell to 4Gb
once removed everything worked fine …..
