Hello managers,
        My apologies for the delay in responding! I got so much responses.
        The most of them suggested to play with limit what I did without
        success. Other suggestions are to modify maxdsize,vpagemax,maxssize,
        vmmaxsize in the kernel and rebuild it. I haven't done it yet but as
        soon as I can shutdown the workstation, Il will modify the kernel 
        parameters.
        
        Great thans for the help to Peter Stern,Knut Hellebų,
        David Warren, Hank Lee ,
        Gwen Pettigrew and alan_at_nabeth.cxo.dec.com who suggested also to use dxkerneltuner,
        John Becker says : Try increasing in /etc/sysconfigtab
                        proc:
                        
                        per-proc-stack-size
                        max-per-proc-stack-size
                        per-proc-data-size
                        max-per-proc-data-size
                        max-per-proc-address-space
                        per-proc-address-space
                        vm:
                        vm-maxvas = equal to largest size set above.
        
        
My question  :

       to run a program :
 
       18271: prognam.x : /sbin/loader : Fatal Error : 
       set_program_attributes failed to set heap start.
