    Initially the collector was running at 5GB min & Max(-Xms6g -Xmx6g -XX:MaxPermSize=512m com.zerog.lax.LAX /u01/iem_collector/bin/../Introscope_Enterprise_Manager.lax ), changed the value to 6GB and still seeing the same error, any ideas what could be causing this? And how to clear it? Any help is much appreciated.

     

    Thank you!

    Hi,

     

    There can be many different things that cause this including:

    1. performance issue

    2. custom pbd

    3. class being instrumented from one of our own out of the box pbd's

    4. gc property settings

     

    A few questions though:

    1. What version are you using?

    2. Is this on the MOM or Collector?

    3. If this is on windows, are you starting this as a service?  If so, the settings would go into EMService.conf file

    4. What java version are you using for the EM as defined in the lax or conf file.

     

    Thanks,
    Matt
