Hello ESRI community, need some help here. Trying to make a sense of an error in ArcGIS log
Geodatabase error: Out of client memory.
It is being generated by ArcGIS 10.6.1 on Windows Server 2016 when a large detailed polygon data is being submitted for intersect operation. Same process works fine when smaller/simpler polygons are being processed. We use SQL Server 2014 as a back end. Both SQL and ArcGIS machines have plenty of RAM (ArcGIS machine: 32 GB, SQL Server: 16 GB) and generously increased page file, still no help. Did anybody run to this issues? What is Out of client memory really means? What is acting as a client here?
Thanks!
Hi Vitaly,
I would bet your ArcGIS client machine is running out of disk space to store the scratch files for the operation. See the technical article below:
Error: ERROR 000426: Out Of Memory
Do you have background processing on? Sometimes that will clear this issue up without needing to do anything else. Otherwise, I would keep an eye on Task Manager when running the Intersect to see what kind of resources are being used during the process.
