The system ran out of semaphores.
In this particular case the OS was Solaris and the resolution was to set semmnu and semume to 3000 and bounce the server.
Edit your kernel settings to allow more semaphores for the user who runs shareplex. You will need to be root to do this. You system administrator can help to set this up.
