the maximum data area size defined when explicitly initializing a data area has been exceeded. When not being limited explicitly, t he maximum size for data areas for 32-bit versions is 4,026,531,840 (0xF0000000) bytes or nearly 4GB. For 64-bit versions, the maximum size is 281,474,976,710,656 or 256 TB.

The error also occurs when passing a size value for initializing a data area, which exceeds the maximum data area size.
