Increase semaphores in /etc/system: SEMMSL & SEMMNI

Note: websms/sghocs1@sghtest.192.100.86.52 is a bit too much information given in Internet.

Hi,

Reading your output tells me your shmmax setting is to low.

Read the installation guide to see how you have to change it and also put some extra semaphores in.

Kind regards,

Tycho

you shouldn't have given all these details, i would change the password if i were you kavithared.

alter user websms identified by new_password;

Regards.

Just to add, one more thing, if any one of mount point is 100% full, you cann't start your Oracle. So check if this is the situation if you are not able to solve the problem.
Always take care of the point pointed out by Hany... :-)

login as root
Use a text editor such as vi to change kernel parameter settings in the /etc/system file

check the values for the following settings

SEMMNI 100
SEMMNS 256
SEMMSL 256
SHMMAX 4294967295
SHMMIN 1
SHMMNI 100
SHMSEG 10

reboot the system if you change any of these values.
