    Your kernal parameters are not setup correctly. Check the installation guide for semephore parameters...

    This would be a normal math for the /etc/system file SEMMNS

    a = 200
    b = 100
    c = 100
    SEMMNS = [ (2*a) +b+c ] + [ No. of instances * 10]


    But I would suggest that you go with

    SEMMNS = [2(a+b+c)] + {#instances * 10}

    Good luck.
