hello...

This error indicates that the oracle server process is unable to allocate more memory from the operating system.
This memory consists of the PGA (Program Global Area) and its contents depend upon the server configuration.
For dedicated server processes it contains the stack and the UGA (User Global Area) which holds user session data, cursor information and the sort area.
In a multithreaded configuration (shared server), the UGA is allocated in the SGA (System Global Area) and will not be responsible for ORA-4030 errors.
The ORA-4030 thus indicates the process needs more memory (stack UGA or PGA) to perform its job.

Need to check following
Is there still sufficient memory available?
Is_there_an_operating_system_limit_set?
Is there an oracle limit set?
Which process is requesting too much memory?

For more details use Note:233869.1 on Metalink.

regards
-naren

we ran the report one more time and monitored the sga usage through TOAD the report is requiring more than 1GB of SGA_AGGRe... , we decided to break the report down.
