The full text of the message actually is

0403-030 The fork function failed. Too many processes already exist.

I'm getting this when I try to run some of my Python scripts.

It definitely doesn't happen for all scripts, and even for the scripts
where it does happen, the script seems to run normally.

What can be done about this? The things I've found so far seem to be
meant for AIX and don't work in PASE. For example,

lsattr -E -l sys0 -a maxuproc

is supposed to tell me the maximum number of processes, but I don't
have such a command on my system, that I know of.
