Job manager encounters a core dump

Job manager encounter a core dump when processing a high number of concurrent jobs on a UNIX workstation.

Cause and solution:

If you encounter this problem, you should adjust the supported number of concurrent jobs as needed, based on the requirements of your environment. To perform this operation, use the ulimit native UNIX command.
