 Hi All,
below is the trace............

*** SERVICE NAME:(SYS$BACKGROUND) 2007-09-18 11:57:48.062
*** SESSION ID:(170.1) 2007-09-18 11:57:48.062
*** 2007-09-18 11:57:48.062
Process EMN0 is dead (pid=10557, state=3):
ksbcr1p: restarting dead process failed
ORA-00444: background process "EMN0" failed while starting
ORA-00020: maximum number of processes () exceeded

this trace i had taken from the alert log..
when i was trying to connect to the database i received the following error
ORA-00020: maximum number of processes (%s) exceeded
and the users were getting
ORA-12516: TNS:listener could not find available handler with matching protocol

Restarting the server did worked for me but i want to know what exactly could have happened...

Thanks in Advance...

As The Event Monitor process EMNO (EMON) was introduced in Oracle8i, and is associated with the Streams Advanced Queueing (AQ) Notification feature.
It is the process which allows publishers of events, enqueueing processes, to communicate with subscribers to these event, dequeueing processes, asynchronously.
Event publisher to EMON communication happens via the SGA, in particular it utilises the shared_pool, hence it is shared memory communication whereas emon to event
subscriber communication happens via tcp/ip. The former method of communication is significantly faster than the latter.

The Error ORA-00020: maximum number of processes exceeded is usually happens due to database setup For that we check database parameter "processes"
If it’s then less then increase number of processes to higher value. and then start the database. The problem automatically goes
