I have a machine with fairly much memory 16GB and I get shmget failed: error 28 (No space left on device). It seems that I may be out of shared memory, how do I increase that?

$ free total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 14976000 14945552 30448 0 146560 1298908 -/+ buffers/cache: 13500084 1475916 Swap: 18448376 6730856 11717520

Is this a DB server (Oracle maybe?) What is ipsc -l and ipcs -p saying

You can try tweaking SHMMAX and SHMMIN in the with sysctl or in /etc/sysctl.conf
