The "Installation & Configuration Guide" (ICG) has the correct settings. It's not a size issue; there are very specific Solaris errors in the event that Oracle is requesting too much SHM space. This appears more like Solaris permissions. Log a TAR with Oracle Support, and keep calling them back regularly (every hour if necessary) until it's resolved. Use the Oracle Support "MetaLink" site to monitor new developments on your TAR...
