Bit odd, this issue is more common on Solaris - has someone suddently turned on multiplexing ?
What is the sharded memory set to on the server, this is an OS kernel setting called ...
SHMMAX
It may need increasing, however, if this was working, something has changed - or the server is under more load / something welse using shared memory.
First idea is just to reboot, this should clear things out and if it was a one-off issue it may not reoccur.
It would be sensible to do this, as if it does n't retuurn it saves making changes that would therefore be unnecessary and may introduce other issues.
