New install of Solaris 8, Oracle 8.1.7. We want to create new database. In /etc/system we have:
* Shared memory

set shmsys:shminfo_shmmax = 4294967295
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmin = 1
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmni = 300
set shmsys:shminfo_shmseg = 30

* Semaphores

set semsys:seminfo_semmns = 15000
set semsys:seminfo_semmni = 100
set semsys:seminfo_semmnu = 100
set semsys:seminfo_semmsl = 150
set semsys:seminfo_semmap = 60

SVRMGR> connect internal
Password:
Connected.
SVRMGR> startup nomount
ORA-27102: out of memory
SVR4 Error: 22: Invalid argument
SVRMGR> Two questions:
1. Why the server is asking for password ? 2. Why is "out of memory" ?
