Neeraj.

Firstly, can I check that your machine has the required amount of
memory. Your output shows you are running 4 processes on the same node,
each requiring 1000 mega words of memory (8Gb), which gives a total of
32Gb of memory - is this what you have/require?

Also, I notice this is version 2008.1. All licensees of 2008.1 have
automatically been upgraded for free to 2009.1 licensees, I would
recommend that you install the latest version.

Best wishes,

Andy
