Yes, that's true, but DerCommisar wrote that he has a HP-UX 9000 box.
And now that I found an HP box with Oracle today, that box (after
setting
to the insane value of 'processes=2000') shows:
ORA-07279: spcre: semget error, unable to get first semaphore set. HP-UX Error: 28: No space left on device Additional information: 1
HP boxes say "No space left on device" if you run out of semaphores or
shared memory.
This was HP-UX 10.20, Oracle 7.1.6.
Still, since UNIX boxes have a tendency to show weird errno's for some
system calls,
"File table overflow" might alsi be given unce some other strange
condition.
