It would appear that QTP is encountering an ACCVIO, and fielding it &
displaying the message before exiting with %system-f-abort.

You should definitely take this up with Cognos Support, rather than Compaq:
it's a clear indicator of an application bug. I've only seen it with Quick:
bigger working set & page file quota can alleviate it.

It would, if the application (qtp) didn't field it.

Not recommended. I don't think that will override the memory related parameters
anyway. Relevant factors are:

Powerhouse version.
WSDEF, WSQUO, WSEXT (in SYSUAF & the corresponding SYSGEN parameters).
PGFLQUOTA (in SYSUAF & corresponding SYSGEN param).

The QTP source may also be an issue.

Try: doubling all the above quotas to see if it helps.
Also check out the recommended quotas in the PH installation manual.
If all else fails, work on simplifying the QTP to isolate the cause of the
problem.
