Question UNIX memory problems w/Progress DB

We are currently running HP-UX 11 as our database server. The database is Progress version 9.1C.

As of late, some of our batch processes that run on the UNIX db server are erroring out because of what appear to be memory issues(at least according to Progress). The db error messages indicate that either there are too may subprocesses and it cannot fork, there is not enough memory to execute the request, or there is not enough memory to allocate a sort buffer. There does not appear to be a consistent pattern to when this happens. Also, we don't appear to be exceeding swap space.

Not sure what else it could be. If any of you have encountered similiar problems, how did you resolve it? Any and all feedback is appreciated.

nrglbd(8ncs)															      nrglbd(8ncs)

Name
       nrglbd - non-replicating global location broker (GBL) daemon

Syntax
       /etc/ncs/nrglbd [ -version ]

Description
       The  global location broker (GLB), enables clients to locate servers on a network or internet.  The GLB database stores the locations (that
       is, the network addresses and port numbers) where server processes are running.	The GLB maintains this database and provides access to it.

       The daemon should run as a background process.  It requires no options or arguments.  A Local Location Broker daemon ( ) must be running on
       the local host when is started.

       You can run only one on a network or internet.

       On ULTRIX systems, is typically started by a line in such as the following:
       /etc/ncs/nrglbd& echo -n ' nrglbd' > /dev/console

Options
       -version  Display  the version of the Network Computing Kernel (NCK) that this belongs to but do not start the daemon.  (NCK is part of the
		 Network Computing System (NCS) on which DECrpc is based.)

Restrictions
       This section discusses the procedure to follow if the system running the is taken off-line.

       If you restart on the same system and no server on any other system changed state, all things should run as before.  If, however, an appli-
       cation tries to contact a server that is no longer running or which has different port numbers, the application will fail.  The application
       also will not see any new server registrations.

       If a copy of is not available, you must create an up to date version of the file before restarting To do so, use to query the for registra-
       tion data on every system running an DECrpcserver and then use to register all DECrpc servers with the GLB on the new host.  Then restart
