The PCI memory pool is allocated all at once when the PCI Bridge initializes; it does not grow after that. It is controlled by Adaptive Server and is governed by the same restrictions as other memory pools—for example, a single allocation cannot exceed 1MB. The default size of the PCI memory pool is 32,768 KB.
Use the enable pci configuration parameter to enable the PCI memory pool when you configure the server for Java. See the installation guide for your platform.
The default size of the PCI memory pool size is adequate for most installations. To increase the size of the memory pool, reset the pci memory size configuration parameter.
For example, to set pci memory size to 13800 pages (each page is 2KB), enter:
sp_configure "pci memory size", 13800
pci memory size is a dynamic configuration parameter; you do not need to restart Adaptive Server for the change to take effect.
If Adaptive Server does not have sufficient memory available to allocate to the memory pool, this configuration change is ignored and the PCI Bridge does not start.
See “Configuration parameters” for more information about pci memory size.
