I am attempting to start an Oracle 7.3.3 database on a Sun IPC running Solaris 2.5.1. The database startup fails and the following message is written to os.log:

--------------[ rdbms.ins 3674

]---------------------------------------------

Action: Using egrep to search for '%create_db_key_words%' in the file: /usr2/app/oracle/admin/PAC/create/crdbPAC.lst in order to determine if the
'CREATE DATABASE' statement succeeded for the PAC database. Command: (egrep '^ORA-' /usr2/app/oracle/admin/PAC/create/crdbPAC.lst), Out=/usr
2/app/oracle/product/7.3.2/orainst/os.log, Err=/usr2/app/oracle/product/7.3.2/or
ainst/os.log
{
ORA-07307: sms1sg: shmat error, unable to attach sga. ORA-01034: ORACLE not available
}
Status: 0
--------------[ rdbms.ins 3687

]---------------------------------------------

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance for any help offered.
