Hi Gurus,

My test database 8.1.6 resides in Unix machine. We are supposed to upgrade the Unix OS from 5.6 to 5.8 for our Oracle HRMS V11.5.1. There are some problems with the OS upgrade and for some reasons, the Unix administrator cannot restore back the OS. He has tried to install a new copy of the OS 5.8 and now I cannot start up my database. The error message is below

                $ /dg5/app/oracle/testcomn/admin/scripts/addbctl.sh start

                You are running addbctl.sh version 115.0

                Starting the database TEST ...

                SQL*Plus: Release 8.1.6.0.0 - Production on Thu Mar 7 10:14:23 2002

		Connected to an idle instance.
		ORA-27102: out of memory
		SVR4 Error: 22: Invalid argument
		Disconnected

		addbctl.sh: exiting with status 0

I am thinking of asking him to install a fresh copy of the OS 5.6 ? Any advice ? Please help. Thanks.

Regds,
New Bee
