<![CDATA[JAVA - Out of Memory]]>Our server installation has crashed twice so far in the past week due to this:

ERROR 2017-08-01T15:52:21,362 (com.serotonin.m2m2.rt.maint.BackgroundProcessing$RejectableWorkItemRunnable.run:559) - Error in work item
java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space

Version: core 3.1.1+20170620163725 (Build number: 20170620163725) - Enterprise

We used to run it with 2GB without any problems, but since we have the available memory I've increased it to 4GB from now on.

What's the permanent way to increase java memory size?

Is this the method I should?

I hard set the memory and I think it might have fixed the issue.

Cheers

If you've passed the argument there, Java got it. You should also see it reflected on the internal metrics page.

So I've created a symbolic link as in my original post, since I noticed that it's essentially the same instructions that you gave.

How can I confirm that the changes worked?

Arguments to control the heap size are passed in the ext-available scripts. You probably want a script like....

#!/bin/bash
case "$1" in
    init)
        # Startup with Java Memory setup for Large installation
        JAVAOPTS="$JAVAOPTS -Xms3200m -Xmx3200m"
        ;;
esac

if you're only running Mango on that machine. Place it in ext-enabled.

Did anything change in the configuration recently?
