错误信息一般在Oracle实例在创建一些辅助后台进程(如mmon的子进程m00x或者子进程W00x等)时出现进程启动失败时出现，而造成该错误的可能性有多种，包括Oracle实例资源不足、操作系统资源不足等等。其中较为常见的是实例instance的process使用达到上限，可以通过查询v$resource_limit视图来了解实例生命周期内是否发生过process总数暴满的情况:
我们可以看到processes的MAX_UTILIZATION最大使用数目曾到过LIMIT_VALUE限定的400，，
sessions达到了640.
从以上V$resource_limit视图的输出来看，极有可能是processes总数达到上限导致了新的后台辅助进程创建失败，其实我们可以很方便地验证这一点:
