 Unix Tip #4239- September 19, 2012
 
LIMIT THE SIZE OF DATA AREA  
  
You can limit the size of "data area"  
using ulimit and limit.  
  
  
Under sh or ksh:  
$ ulimit -d SIZE_IN_KB  
  
Displays all current resource limits  
$ ulimit -a  
  
  
under csh or tcsh:  
$ limit datasize SIZE_IN_KB  
  
Displays all current resource limits  
$ limit  
  
  
For example:  
$ ulimit -d 141073  
$ ulimit -a
