I am running on an HP T500 which is being used as a development platform for a number of projects, all of which, it seems, need 4 databases each. I have scripts to create databases and have cloned them to create 5 instances so far with no problem. I have had as many as 4 of the databases running at the same time without a problem. When I tried to create a 6th database using the same scripts I got something like the following errors (the numbers might not be right, but the messages are close):
ora-0422 PMON process failed to start
ora-7269 Background process execd successfully, then died additional information: 6

I've checked all the init.ora parameters. I've shut down all but two of the databases to be sure it isn't a resource problem. I'm thinking it must be some parameter somewhere that is causing PMON to die, but I can't think of what it might be. Processes is set to 20, same as 2 other instances that created just fine and whose create scripts I cloned for the new instance. MTS is set to come up in init.ora, but I have not added the new instance to listener.ora or tnsnames.ora, could this be it? Any help would be greatly appreciated... Bill Allaway
