ESRI has released so many versions, releases, service packs of ArcMap, ArcSDE and other ArcGIS Server products that it is a challenge to keep a useful list of reference links! At least here is one I accumulated and am accumulating day by day

How to resolve Error 1606 when installing ArcMap 10 Desktop

When installing ArcMap 10 on my workstation, I got the following error:

Error 1606. Could not access network location \\****\****\My Pictures\

Solution:

You receive an "Error 1606" error message when you try to install or remove a Microsoft program (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/886549 )


To resolve this issue yourself, follow these steps:
  1. Click Start, click Run, type Regedit.exe, and then click OK.
  2. Locate and then click the following registry subkey:

    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders
  3. In the right pane, verify that the values are the same as the values in the following table. If each value matches the table, go to step 7. 
For Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008

SESSIONS

Thank you for visiting Spatial DBA - Oracle and ArcSDE.

Range of values
1 to 231
Basic
Yes
SESSIONS specifies the maximum number of sessions that can be created in the system. Because every login requires a session, this parameter effectively determines the maximum number of concurrent users in the system. You should always set this parameter explicitly to a value equivalent to your estimate of the maximum number of concurrent users, plus the number of background processes, plus approximately 10% for recursive sessions.
Oracle uses the default value of this parameter as its minimum. Values between 1 and the default do not trigger errors, but Oracle ignores them and uses the default instead.
The default values of the ENQUEUE_RESOURCES and TRANSACTIONS parameters are derived from SESSIONS. Therefore, if you increase the value of SESSIONS, you should consider whether to adjust the values of ENQUEUE_RESOURCES and TRANSACTIONS as well. (Note that ENQUEUE_RESOURCES is obsolete as of Oracle Database 10g release 2 (10.2).)
In a shared server environment, the value of PROCESSES can be quite small. Therefore, Oracle recommends that you adjust the value of SESSIONS to approximately 1.1 * total number of connections.
