hi ,


Error: ORA-00018: maximum number of sessions exceeded

Cause: You tried to execute a statement that requested a resource. Since the maximum number of sessions have been reached, Oracle will not process any new resource requests.

Action: The options to resolve this Oracle error are:
You can wait a few minutes and try to re-execute the statement(s).
You can shut down Oracle, increase the SESSIONS parameter in the initialization parameter file, and restart Oracle

Increase the initialization parameter "sessions" in init.ora and restart the database.

or otherwise increase processes parameter.

Default value for sessions is 1.1 * processes + 5
