I have a Solaris 11.1 server running an Oracle database. I want to read the environment of a running oracle process, as the oracle user, like this:

$ id
uid=100(oracle) gid=100(oinstall)
$ ps -fuoracle | grep pmon
oracle  1651     1   0 10:25:37 ?           0:01 ora_pmon_TESTDB
$ pargs -e 1651
pargs: cannot examine 1651: permission denied
$ ls -ld /proc/1651
dr-x--x--x   5 oracle   oinstall     864 Nov 23 10:25 /proc/1651

How can I grant permissions for oracle to read processes that it already owns?
