AMM RAC database and switch RAC database to ASMM

Calculate the current memory usage for our AMM RAC database and switch RAC database to ASMM

SQL> select sum(bytes/1024/1024) Current_SGA_SIZE_in_MB from v$sgastat;
CURRENT_SGA_SIZE_IN_MB
----------------------
        904.844437
SQL> select sum(bytes/1024/1024) MAX_SGA_SIZE_in_MB from  v$sgainfo    where name = 'Maximum SGA Size';
MAX_SGA_SIZE_IN_MB
------------------
    1592.84766
SQL> show parameter memory_max_target;
NAME                     TYPE     VALUE
------------------------------------ ----------- ------------------------------
memory_max_target             big integer 1600M
SQL> select (value/1024/1024) Current_PGA_IN_USE_in_MB from v$pgastat where name = 'total PGA inuse';
CURRENT_PGA_IN_USE_IN_MB
------------------------
          122.085938
SQL> select (value/1024/1024) MAX_PGA_ALLOCATED_in_MB from v$pgastat where name = 'maximum PGA allocated';
MAX_PGA_ALLOCATED_IN_MB
-----------------------
         167.658203
SQL> select (value/1024/1024) PGA_TARGET_in_MB    from v$pgastat where name = 'aggregate PGA target parameter';
PGA_TARGET_IN_MB
----------------
         480
Our current AMM uses the following memory
 - memory reserved  for PGA/SGA: 1600 MByte 
 - current PGA size 120 MB
 - current SGA size 904 MB
 - free memory for future PGA/SGA usage: ~ 600 MByte

For switching ASMM this can be translated into 
  SGA_MAX_SIZE             : 1400 MByte
  SGA_TARGET               : 1000 MByte
  PGA_AGGREGATE_TARGET     :  480 Mbyte

For further tuning check : V$PGA_TARGET_ADVICE

Execute the  following commands.
Disable AMM
  SQL> alter system reset memory_max_target scope=spfile  sid='*';
  SQL> alter system reset memory_target  scope=spfile  sid='*';

Enable ASMM
  SQL> alter system set SGA_MAX_SIZE=1400m scope=spfile  sid='*';
  SQL> alter system set SGA_TARGET=1000m scope=spfile  sid='*'; 
  SQL> alter system set PGA_AGGREGATE_TARGET=480m scope=spfile  sid='*';  

Reboot database and verify that we have switched from AMM to ASMM
SQL> show parameter memory

--> ASMM enabled !

 Review impact on OS resources after switchging for AMM to ASMM

The switch from AMM to ASMM frees space in /dev/shm but allocates shared memomry for the SGA
