SAP Term: allocated memory

  • Component: HAN

This pool of memory is preallocated from the operating system over time, up to a predefined global allocation limit, and is then efficiently used as needed by the SAP A database code.

  • Key Concepts: 
    Allocated memory is a term used in SAP HANA to refer to the amount of memory that has been assigned to a particular process or application. It is the amount of memory that is available for use by the process or application. Allocated memory is different from reserved memory, which is the amount of memory that has been set aside for future use. 
    
    How to Use It: 
    In SAP HANA, allocated memory can be managed through the Memory Manager. This tool allows users to view and adjust the amount of allocated memory for each process or application. The Memory Manager also provides information about the total amount of allocated memory and the amount of reserved memory. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When managing allocated memory in SAP HANA, it is important to ensure that there is enough allocated memory for each process or application. If there is not enough allocated memory, performance may suffer. Additionally, it is important to monitor the total amount of allocated and reserved memory to ensure that there is enough available for future use.
