Error 11 is a POSIX error number (errno) and means EAGAIN, "Resource temporarily unavailable", which is documented.
On Solaris 10, this means, you must first allow the Elasticsearch user to allocate this amount of virtual memory. Switch to Elasticsearch user and then check the following values prctl -n project.max-shm-memory $$ prctl -n process.max-address-space $$ Then the sys admin could create a project with projadd and projmod and change resource limits for the Elasticsearch user. The error can also mean that Solaris has not enough memory for mlockall because there is already software running using the memory, or it the free memory is too fragmented.
