Thanks for the reply.
However with this setting seems like memory is limited to 7.9 GB.

Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
udev                  7.9G  2.4M  7.9G   1% /dev
tmpfs                 7.9G  7.3G  567M  93% /dev/shm
/dev/sda1             198M  142M   46M  76% /boot

I can't understand how the Oracle instance start with the setting =

MEMORY_TARGET=3D12G
Version info.

USE Linux Enterprise Server 11 (x86_64)
VERSION =3D 11
PATCHLEVEL =3D 1

Thanks
Arturo
