SYMPTOM
In Strategy 10.x, during a Project Duplication process the following error message pops up:
ErrorAutomation error No more threads can be created in the system

CAUSE
This issue is caused by too many unused managed object. The unused managed objects are objects that were needed at some point and became unused once their dependencies were deleted (for example, a prompt created within a report; when the report is deleted the prompt becomes an unused managed object). To avoid managed objects creation, it is recommended to create standalone objects that can be reused instead of objects that only exist inside a report or document: this applies to prompts, derived metrics, derived elements, filters, etc.
ACTION
An administrator can delete unused managed object in Strategy Developer:
1. Log in to a Strategy project.
2. Click on Administration tab.
3. Go to Projects, select Delete unused managed objects.
