RE: CVS Tagging Terminated with fatal signal 11

[Krishnamoorthy, Balaji]

Thanks once again , infact i tried ulimit -v for checking on the limit of 
virtual memory . Following is the output for ulimit -a for which most of them 
are specified as unlimited , would it be because of max open files or stack 
size ? But it works sometimes and fails sometimes, and this problem .
could you also suggest (if any change required) what the values should be for 
open files, pipe size , stack size and max user processes 

bash-2.03$ id
uid=302(cvsuser) gid=10(staff)
bash-2.03$ ulimit -a
core file size (blocks)     unlimited
data seg size (kbytes)      unlimited
file size (blocks)          unlimited
open files                  256
pipe size (512 bytes)       10
stack size (kbytes)         8192
cpu time (seconds)          unlimited
max user processes          15717
virtual memory (kbytes)     unlimited           


Thanks 
Bala

The man page for your shell to learn how the ulimit command works. 
ulimit with no arguments gives you the maximum allowable *file* size, it
doesn't have anything to do with memory limits.  If you can't be
bothered to read the man page, at least try "ulimit -a".
