Rt2-->rt3 dump tool running out of memory

I’m trying to upgrade from rt2.0.12 --> rt3.2.2 … but the
rt-2.0-to-dumpfile script keeps running out of memory … actually it keeps
stop when it reachs 445MB.

The machine I’m running it on has 1500+MB of memory free (2048MB on board)

root@rt$ ./rt-2.0-to-dumpfile /u/rt2-rt3/
Out of memory during request for 1012 bytes, total sbrk() is 445851648
bytes!

Any ideas how to keep this from happening? I think it’s Perl that is running
out of space.

Just because your machine has that much RAM doesn’t mean your processes
are allowed to use all of it. Unix is, after all, a multiuser system
and enforces resource limits against its users.

You likely need to increase your memory resource limits for your dump
process.
