CAUSE:
These error messages do not indicate that your machine is out of memory.
Instead, UNIX kernel settings may need to be revised because, by default, they are often too low.
FIX:
Check your kernel settings (most probably MAXUMEM or MAXUP) and increase them to higher limits to allow more memory per process.
The MAXUMEM kernel parameter is the user's virtual address space in the kernel. The default value is sometimes too low, paticularly when you run a procedure that requires a lot of memory.
The MAXUMEM is a deprecated kernel parameter for some UNIX-based operating systems. Please refer to the notes section for more information.
