Hi,
I am getting an error saying that "scd_Application_auto_dim,0: Caught exception from runLocally(): APT_BadAlloc: Heap allocation failed.."
In this job I am reading two data sets and passing it into slowly changing dimension stage and loading into a table.
I searched the forum and did a ulimit -a in before subroutine and I am getting this values.
*** Output from command was: ***
time(seconds) unlimited
file(blocks) unlimited
data(kbytes) 1048576
stack(kbytes) 131072
memory(kbytes) unlimited
coredump(blocks) 4194303
nofiles(descriptors) 8192
Can anybody help me do I need to change anything to slove the issue
Thanks,

How do I view my Hard limit and soft limit values using ulimit

in the before-job routine do an execute shell of "ulimit -a" and you will see the run-time values displayed in your log file.

They've already done that. Aren't the "hard" values those configured in the kernel? There's different ways to find those, it depends on what flavor of UNIX you are running.

I should have read the whole thread, not just the last post.
Kittu - which UNIX are you running? Each flavour has a different way of specifiying the hard and soft limits.

Hi,
I am running in HP -UX. I found the hard limits by using ulimit -Ha
These are the values I got
time(seconds) unlimited
file(blocks) unlimited
data(kbytes) 1048576
stack(kbytes) 131072
memory(kbytes) unlimited
coredump(blocks) unlimited
Can you tell me is there anything I have tell my admin to change

Didn't you get other messages with this one, one like this for instance?
The current soft limit on the data segment (heap) size (XXX) is less than the hard limit (YYY), consider increasing the heap size limit

We are running the same job and same files in PreProd there is no abort the jobs are running fine why they are giving this error.
I saw the ulimit parameters its the same for both the environments.
Can you tell me what may be the cause.
Thanks,
