Hi Abhishek:


We had a similar issue and was fixed when the following were set as root by
our sys admin.

# NOTE: "Unlimited" is not truly unlimited.  It

# will set the given limit to the maximum value

# determined by your hardware configuration

ulimit -t unlimited              # cputime

   ulimit -f unlimited              # filesize

   ulimit -d unlimited              # datasize

   ulimit -s unlimited              # stacksize

   ulimit -c unlimited              # coredumpsize

   ulimit -m unlimited              # memoryuse

   ulimit -v unlimited              # vmemoryuse

   ulimit -n unlimited              # descriptors

   ulimit -l unlimited              # memorylocked

   ulimit -u unlimited              # maxproc


Hope this helps,

Sarika
