$ sar 
sar: can't open /var/adm/sa/sa23 
No such file or directory 

I do see a /var/adm/sa/sa16 directory. What does this mean?   

Jacques,

This is the file (not directory?!) that records the system activity
information (in binary) via the sadc program. The file is named by
day-of-the-month (it is 23rd today). You don't seem to have access to this
file - not sure why since you normally should.... Or maybe you ran out of
space in the '/var' filesystem?

>From your answer re the solution - i.e. reduction of SGA - it looks like a
combination of values in SHM and SEM parameters did create the problem...
Another issue that occurs in my mind is that some filesystem - either
$ORACLE_HOME or $TNS_ADMIN or whereever sqlnet logs are kept became full..
