ORA-27300: OS system dependent operation, ORA-27301 , ORA-27302

Once while monitering i found the the below error is periodically occuring in my alert log file. The error is 

Process startup failed, error stack:
Errors in file d:\app\diag\rdbms\royal1\royal1\trace\royal1_psp0_1700.trc:
ORA-27300 : OS system dependent operation:CreateThread failed with status: 8
ORA-27301 :  OS failure message: Not enough storage is available to process this command.
ORA-27302 : failure occurred at: ssthrddcr.

From the above error message , I guess that the above message has some relation with OS . On googling , i found that the above message may be a BUG and refer me to check Metalink BUG 3411021 . After going  through some documententaion, we come to the  conclusion that  : 

The system lacked the necessary resources to create another process, or the system-imposed limit on the total number of processes under execution system-wide or by a single user {CHILD_MAX} would be exceeded.

In my case, Our server is having 24GB of RAM and Database is on window server . When i have check the virtual memory(Swap Memory) , I found that it is having 24GB virtual memory and recommended memory is 36GB and it is system managed . Finally,I have decided to increase the Virtual Memory(Swap Memory) . I have increased the virtual memory to 40GB and on next time i found that no such error is occurring .

To solve this error ensure that the existing memory is sufficient and functioning properly. Check for OS log message for any hardware errors. The another option to solve this issue is to decrease the size of SGA so that OS process can get more memory. Hope this help to solve this issue.

Enjoy       :-)
