SYMPTOMS

When you attempt to import a custom .inf file into a security database by using the Security Configuration and Analysis snap-in, you may receive the following error message:
Not enough storage is available to process this command. Import Failed

CAUSE

This error can occur if many changes are required on a single object in the database. The Microsoft Jet database engine does not allocate the memory for the version store until it is used; it reserves the memory addresses during the startup process but does not commit the memory until it is needed.

WORKAROUND

The value that manages the maximum number of pages is a fixed value of 128 pages. To work around this issue, split your .inf template file into several smaller files.
