Went from 2gb ram to 12gb - any changes for zm to use it?

I've upgraded one of our zm servers from 2gb ram (it was a test server) to 12gb ram. all 12gb show up via the 'free' command but is there anything I need to do to get zm to use the extra ram or will it figure it out automatically?

Hello
you need to adapt your shared memory of your linux server
depend of your distrib with my gentoo the config file is /etc/sysctl.conf

and for 4Go of RAM have these config

kernel.shmall = 2097152
kernel.shmmax = 4294967296
