Hello,
I am trying to install ASE 16 provided by a vendor on a PowerPC based AIX server. The installation doesn't go through. I see the following in ASE_Suite.log file:

And the installation stops. I checked other log files and I saw the below in sysam_util.log

Does anybody has a clue as to what is going on. The server has 8Gb RAM although all these logs show very small memory. The above sysam_util.log has the following at the top of log. Not sure why it shows the memory to be so low. Maybe its just a portion of the memory used by this utility for installation. If yes, then "Why did we get OutOfMemoryError error above.
