hello ,
We would like to increase the priority of the oracle process . Process(240001 ) should get the priority like the process(240103 ). Am not sure what value i should mention in the renice command(aix 6.1). Please assist me.
240001 A oracle 26804312 1 0 60 20 89fd69590 171720 Jul 19 - 0:27 ora_dbrm_wbubst1
240103 A oracle 8650850 1 0 39 -- 8a6b6f590 193436 Jul 19 - 0:13 ora_lgwr_wbubst1
Thanks,

nice is for starting processes with a different priority and renice is for altering it when a process is already running.
Have you man pages on your AIX system? I recommend to read up on those two commands. The man page also state which limits are possible. That wouldn't harm and should be the first resource for help to consider.
From the output, I see PID 240103 has lower priority (39) than that of PID 240001 (60). The greater the priority, the lower the nice value. I think what you actually should want to be doing is to decease the priority by bumping up the nice value for PID 240001to match up PID 240103.
To calculate the exact value of nice for priority 39, you still need to see man pages.
