Giri, I ran into this. Deepak is correct. When the db starts, it checks that SEMMNS < sum(processes) of all dbs on the machine, including the one you are trying to start . Bring your processes parameter down (or increase the number of semaphores) and it should come up.

Hi all,
When I was creating a database on Solaris 2.6 and Oracle version is 8.1.5 .
I faced the following problem. When I saw the Cause & Action .
27146, 0000, "post/wait initialization failed"
// *Cause: OS system call failed
// *Action: check errno and contact Oracle Support
And the other error which is associated with this is ORA-3114. This may be becoz of lack SGA . Is it becoz of some semaphores settings in /etc/system or something else?
Pl. help me out in this issue.
TIA Giri ***************************
