the larger the number of "processes" in the init.ora, the larger the
number of semaphores you need on most Unix systems. Not all, I *think*
from reading the list that AIX doesn't use semaphores (I've only worked
on HP-UX and SUN, both of which use semaphores)
If the processes parameter is set so high that there are no more
semaphores available, your database won't open
