Hi,
I am running a python script for a 2D model with 4000 elements to calculate different field outputs.I will apply 7 load case on this model while each load case means one job.While I can extract results with separated load cases, when I run 7 load cases I will face this error:

*** error: an out-of-memory error occurred. on 32-bit versions of windows, you can use the boot option /3gb /userva=sizeinmbytes to increase the amount of memory that can be used by the application. please refer to microsoft's documentation for more detailed information. alternatively, if you have access to a 64-bit operating system, you can try running the application there, where the memory is not limited to 2 or 3gb. ***error: an out of memory error occurred. 07/30/12 09:33:49 abaqus error: analysis input file processor exited with an error. abaqus/analysis exited with errors
I have seen this error in other forums, the suggestion was for windows or decreasing number of elements.I can not do that since I am using Linux terminal.
Anybody knows how can I fix this issue?would run the jobs on a cluster fix the issue?

Do you mean running 7 jobs at the same time ? From Abaqus/CAE or outside of it ? What if you reduce the number of jobs ?
 
No, every job will be finished the data will be extracted and another job will be run. It is with a python script in the terminal of linux.By calling abaqus CAE and running the script.
I have tried to reduce the number of jobs, but even with 2 jobs it faces the same problem!
