Space problem when running two db at the same time (question)

Hi

I tried to run two databases at the same time but got a problem. Hope someone can give me a help.

Basically, when I start up another instance without shut down the one running, I got a error message as follow:

CAUTION ORA-07279: spcre: semget error, unable
to get first semaphore set.
SunOS Error: 28: No space left on device Additional information: 2

Orcale support said this is a problem with space on the platform. In fact the hard disk which conatins all the files (data file, control file etc) for the two database still has a lot of space (more than 500 M). I don't understand which space that the error message was talking about.

Thanks advance.
