3209438 - SAP does not start due to "ThrInitServInfo: MtxOpen failed (7)"

Symptom

SAP does not start.

When checking the Dispatcher trace file (dev_disp), it is verified that a work process requested the shutdown.

For example:

[date and time]
***
*** DpRqNoWpHandle: SHUTDOWN request from Wxx received (reason=DP_SHUTDOWN_INIT_FAILED) ***
***

********** SERVER SNAPSHOT 1 (Reason: Hard Shutdown / Time: [date and time]) - begin **********
or
***
*** DpRqNoWpHandle: SHUTDOWN request from Wxx received (reason=DP_SHUTDOWN_UNKNOWN_REASON) ***
***

When looking at the corresponding work process trace file (dev_wXX), the following error is seen:

M [date and time]
M  rdisp/daemon/periodic_check: -1
M  *** ERROR => ThrInitServInfo: MtxOpen failed (7) [thxxrun1.c   308]
M  *** ERROR => ThrExclusiveInitRunTime: ThrInitServInfo failed (-1) [thxxrun1.c   236]
M  *** WARNING => ThExclusiveStartUp: ThrExclusiveInitRunTime failed (-1) [thxxext.c    729]
M  *** WARNING => ThShMInit: ThExclusiveStartUp failed (WARNING-CORE-INIT_RUNTIME_FAILED) [thxxhead.c   1910]
