Solutions for the mentioned error:
- Increase value of oracle parameter: ‘memory_max_target’ & ‘memory_target’ and try to startup database.
- If above not working than delete ‘memory_target’ parameter from parameter file & try to startup database.
- If above not working than increase ‘tmpfs’ space.
