Novell Netware was primarily designed as a file and print server. In order to run a database on it one must install much more memory than would typically be required to run a file and print server. Configurations in the order of 128 Meg memory is not uncommon.
If you have performance problems, just keep adding more memory to the server. Amounts in the order of 128 Mb and higher are not uncommon.
To determine how much free memory is available on your NetWare server:
You can check to see if these parameters are set by doing a VOLUMES command at the server console prompt. SA or CP under the flags column indicates that SubAllocation or ComPression have been set. To fix this you should:
This NLMs can be unloaded by running the SYS:SYSTEM\ORAUNLD.NCF netware control file, but remember to shutdown your database first.
Ex. Using SQL*DBA or SVRMGR:
SET INSTANCE S:sid_name CONNECT INTERNAL/password@server_name-IPC STARTUP PFILE=oracle_home\DATABASE\INITsid_name.ORA
STDOUT can be redirected with (CLIB_OPT)/>filepath. Eg:
STDIN can be redirected with (CLIB_OPT)/<filepath. Eg:
SVRMGR.NLM | Oracle's Server Manager utility. With SRVMGR you can create, start, stop and manage your database. | |
SQLLOAD.NLM | Oracle's SQL*Loader data loading utility. | |

IMP.NLM | Oracle's data import utility. | |
EXP.NLM | Oracle's data export utility. | |
EDIT.NLM | This utility is used to edit files residing on the server. To run, type the following at your console prompt: LOAD EDIT Volume_Name:Directory_Path\File_Name | |
MONITOR.NLM | Monitor can provide a wealth of information about your server. Type the following command at your console prompt: LOAD MONITOR /P | |
CONLOG.NLM | Echoes all console activity to a text file called CONSOLE.LOG located in the SYS:\ETC directory. CONLOG.NLM is extremely useful in troubleshooting console error messages. |
MODULES | Display the names, dates, versions, and descriptions of any NLM, LAN, or DSK drivers running on your server. | |
CONFIG | Show the server name, IPX internal network number, node address, hardware settings, and other information regarding your network cards. | |
PROTOCOL | Show information about what protocols have been properly registered on the server. | |
VOLUMES | Display all mounted NetWare volumes, their respective namespaces, and whether compression and/or disk suballocation is enabled. | |
MEMORY | Show how much memory NetWare registers. | |
VERSION | Show the revision of NetWare you are using and the number of users it will support. | |
DISPLAY SERVERS | Show all entities that are broadcasting themselves across the network. These entities may be Oracle listeners, fax servers, print servers, etc.. | |
SET | Show a menu of choices represents a category of configuration parameters. There parameters are "set" in either the STARTUP.NCF, AUTOEXEC.NCF, or both. | |
PATCHES | If patches have been applied, you will see the individual patch NLMs listed with a description of the problem it fixes. If you receive error "???Unknown command???", then no patches have been applied. | |
TIME | Display the server's current date and time. |
