Folks,

we have about six oracle instances running on a box and I need to know if we can add one more instance. When I do a top I get the below output:

I see there is very little physical memory free but arnd 5gig of swap free. I wana know can I add one more instance which can use swap memory:

Tasks: 423 total, 4 running, 417 sleeping, 0 stopped, 2 zombie
Cpu(s): 15.9% us, 1.1% sy, 0.0% ni, 64.8% id, 17.6% wa, 0.0% hi, 0.6% si

Hello,

Please post the output of free -tom command also
