RHEL5(x86_64) running on vmware esx hangs

My RHEL5(x86_64) running on vmware esx swapping and hangs if I change Oracle memory parameters and don't restart the instance and RHEL5.

Can someone help me out on it?

Hi,

Could you please tell us exactly which memory parameters you are changing and how much ram you have allocated to the vm ?

thanks

Hi,

Thank you for attention to my problem. I mean oracle SGA parameters:
db_cache_size
shared_pool_size
large_pool_size
java_pool_size
streams_pool_size

I allocated from 6GB till 64GB of RAM to the vm.
