To see the Oracle memory segments from UNIX write
ipcs

then look at the status column, the one with status is empty and  owner is oracle
write down the shmid, ex: 2 find 2 shmid 123 and 456
 
in order to startup the database without having to reboot the database server, simply remove the newly allocated shared memory. In this case

ipcrm  shm 123 456
