Creating user -- STORAGE_PARAMETER_WRONG_SET

Question

Hello!
We made a new installation of our ERP 6.0. And now i should create the users.
SU01--> I created a username and chose "create".
First I got a problem that the company address is not created yet. I skipped it because the country ID was unknown/not defined.
so i wanted to saved my user.....THEN it happend! it took some time and then there was this nice error message:
STORAGE_PARAMETER_WRONG_SET
Short dump has not been completely stored (too big).
Short text:
The system is configured incorrectly.
What happened?
The current program had to be terminated because of an error when installing the R/3 System.
The program had already requested 235346480 bytes from the operating system with 'malloc' when the operating system reported after a further memory request that there was no more memory space available.
It´s a Windows Server 2003, with 3GB Ram. DB is MS SQL Server 2005.
Thanks for your suggestions.!

Hi,
According to the note 326949,Parameters that are recommend in the instance profile:
Also please go through the SAP NOTE 326949 for more information.
ztta/roll_first = 1       : Allocation unit for the early
                          : allocation of the roll area.
ztta/roll_area = 6500000  : Maximum roll area per work process.
ztta/roll_extension = 2000000000 : Size of a user context in the
                          : extended memory for AIX. Default: 250000000
                          : The parameter value should be higher than
                          : the value of em/address_space_MB since the
                          : lower value of the user
                          : context has a limiting effect. Setting the
                          : ztta/roll_extension to 2GB ensures that
                          : only the parameter
                          : em/address_space_MB defines the size of the
                          : user context in the extended memory.
abap/heap_area_dia        : Limiting the heap area for
                          : dialog work processes. Set the value
                          : according to the calculation instructions in
                          : Note 387370.
abap/heap_area_nondia     : Limiting the heap area for
                          : non-dialog work processes. Set the value
                          : according to the calculation instructions in
                          : Note 387370.
abap/heap_area_total = 2000000000  : Limiting the heap area
                        : altogether. You can extend the area if
                        : necessary.
rdisp/ROLL_SHM = 4096    : Size of the roll buffer in the shared memory.
rdisp/ROLL_MAXFS = 4096  : Maximum size of the roll file. Setting the
                        : parameter to the same value as rdisp/ROLL_SHM
                        : has the effect that, after reaching the user quota
                        : in the extended memory,
                        : files are sent straight to the heap rather than the file system.
rdisp/PG_SHM = 4096      : Size of the ABAP paging buffer in the shared
                        : memory.
rdisp/PG_MAXFS = 32768   : Maximum size of the ABAP paging file.
em/global_area_MB = 24   : Size of the global extended memory.
Hope this helps you
Thanks
