FYI, I discovered the problem here... I reduced the number of processes in my init file by half, and I was able to start my instance. Apparently there was enough resources to start both instances at boot time, but not after the system has been running for awhile -- we have a few other services running on this particular server.
I will have the sys admin take a look at some of the system paramters... Thanks for all the suggestions!

I have encounterd an interesting problem after attempting to make a change in my parameter file. I made a minor change in the date format, and upon shutting down (normal) and starting up, an error in the format was reported. I changed the format back to it's original form so that there was no diff between the original pfile and the current one, and attempted to restart, and I receive the following error: SQL> startup ORA-24323: value not allowed ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel There is nothing interesting in the alert log, and I see the same error with a startup nomount. Any ideas as to what is going on? Thanks in advance!!
