4.6 UNIX Shell Resource Limits
Shell resource limits are applicable to UNIX installations only. The cshell under many operating systems has built in resource limits which the limit command controls:
% limit
cputime         unlimited
filesize        1048575 kbytes
datasize        131072 kbytes
stacksize       32768 kbytes
coredumpsize    1024 kbytes
memoryuse       32768 kbytes
If users encounter crashes or memory related errors, have them change the limits for cputime, filesize, datasize, stacksize, and memoryuse to their maximums immediately before running Patran (in the same shell) with the following command:
% limit datasize unlimited
% limit stacksize unlimited
Note that the value shown by the limit command may be “unlimited” or may show the maximum system allowable.
Place these commands in the users .cshrc file to make the change effective in all shells.
If you are running Korn shell, replace the limit command with a similar command called ulimit, since the Korn shell does not have limits by default.
