This was on a huge structure (760+ angstroms lattice dimension). It is probably a memory issue and likely was done via some structure generation error.
Proposed Solution
Log the error and print a helpful message to the user that their structure is huge and that they should either check their structure or ramp up the memory. Don't perform any specific action.
A similar report is here: https://www.vasp.at/forum/viewtopic.php?t=17124.

@prathami11, when you get a moment, can you please upload an INCAR, KPOINTS, and POSAR file here for the job corresponding to this message (note: do not share the POTCAR since it is proprietary) for reproducibility purposes?
Thanks @Andrew-S-Rosen Here are the original input files for the job. INCAR.txt KPOINTS.txt POSCAR.txt
Just in case it helps, I encountered the same error on a smaller structure when tuning NSIM upwards. The solution of decreasing NSIM proposed at https://www.vasp.at/forum/viewtopic.php?t=17124 applies to my case as well.
