maximum number of processes exceeded

488972Jul 5 2007 — edited Jul 5 2007
Today I started getting this message on one of my production systems:

ORA-00020: maximum number of processes (%s) exceeded


I see in the manual, that this defined by the init parameter "processes". On this server it is currently set to processes=400.

Question: can I change this dynamically, or must I reboot to change this parameter ?
