What version of SeaDAS are you running? There have been a number of
updates recently, and a re-issue of some of the IDL components.
Are you running SeaDAS with the runtime license (ie seadas -em) or using
your IDL5.5 as the backbone?

I haven't had any memory issues whilst running BL2MAP on either RH6,
RH6.2, or IRIX 6.x

If BL2MAP functions correctly from the GUI interface, it _should_ also
function in batch mode (so your memory allocations shouldn't play any
role here). Does the L1A batch processing (msl12 or something similar)
perform correctly?
Is it possible for you to output a parameter file from the interactive
session (that does work), and compare it to your batch command (that
does not work) - maybe a switch is missing, or some other syntax issue.

Since the BL2MAP and other gridding/mapping procedures use the IDL
mapping interface, you should check the IDL documentation, and the
numerous discussions in this newsgroup re: mapping at poles
(http://groups.google.com).
You could try out a number of things in IDL and then transfer this
knowledge across to SeaDAS.

This sounds like the map projection you are using is not quite suited to
your needs - again as above maybe search through the archive to look at
how people solved the poles issue.

picture - sure, though on a web site rather than on the newsgroup ;�)
