Hello guys,

Could use some help here.

System specs. Solaris 8 512MB Ram 1GB Swap Oracle 9i Rel2
Relevant init.ora parameters:

*.LARGE_POOL_SIZE=1048576
*.SGA_MAX_SIZE=33554432
*.SHARED_POOL_SIZE=16777216
*.SORT_AREA_SIZE=2097152
*.compatible='9.2.0.1.0'
*.db_cache_size=2097152
*.log_buffer=1048576

3) Starting up database, I get the following error:

SQL> startup nomount

ORA-27302: failure occurred at: skgpwreset1
ORA-27303: additional information: invalid shared ctx
ORA-27146: post/wait initialization failed
ORA-27300: OS system dependent operation:semget failed with status: 28
ORA-27301: OS failure message: No space left on device
ORA-27302: failure occurred at: sskgpsemsper
--------------------------------------------

I have a lot of disk space left - 2.5GB.

I have half of my RAM and the whole swap free when this error occurs.

I appreciate any help and tips.

Thank you.
