checked ulimits first, no probs there, smon has accumulated over a gb of 
memory, been getting that message over and over for over and hour. Only thing I 
can think of is stop/starting the instance to free up the smon memory.

Support, as in MetaLink note #169706.1?

ORA-04030 means that the Oracle process attempted to allocate more
memory for heap, similar to using the C "malloc()" function, so process
limits could be very relevant...
