Unable to change JVM settings with wrapper/Karaf
Hi
We're running ServiceMix 5.1.1 (Karaf 2.3.4) under wrapper. We've 8Gb on the VM and I'm trying to increase the amount of memory allocated to the JVM. I changed the memory in KARAF-service.conf file which was generated through installing wrapper in ServiceMix to wrapper.java.maxmemory=6244
However, when I restart Karaf I am set -Xmx4096m in startup. This appears to be some sort of upper limit; if I put
wrapper.java.maxmemory=2048
this correctly sets -Xmx2048m in startup.
I can start ServiceMix directly and edit /etc/bin/setenv to allocate more memory, but then lose the functionality of wrapper.
Any thoughts?
James

Thanks both for your advice/info.
I think I'll ditch the Wrapper component and cobble together my own Linux daemon start/stop script.
Ho hum.

It may be related by the JSW version that we use.
You can create your own Karaf RC service (by scripting).
By the way, I have a prototype (again ;)) of the replacement of JSW by commons-daemon.

Hi,
this might be because we are using a "rather old version" of the Service wrapper, as it's the latest version which is ASL2 compliant.
So this might be the issue as it used to be restricted to 4GB max I think.
We're not allowed to ship with a newer version of this Tanuki Service Wrapper due to the licensing. I don't know about exchanging that on your side though.

RE: Unable to change JVM settings with wrapper/Karaf
Posted by "BURN, James" <Ja...@oup.com>.
Hi
I've had edited wrapper.conf by increasing the wrapper.java.maxmemory=xx setting but this reaches a limit of 4096m.
I want to go above this, but can't do so using the wrapper so used bin/start to start Karaf and changed /bin/setenv. I would like to use the wrapper ideally however.
My colleagues pointed out that 4096m seems suspiciously like the limit imposed by a 32bit environment. However, I'm on a 64 bit VM using /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.7.0-openjdk.x86_64/bin/java to start.
Could there be something hardcoded in wrapper which limits the possible memory allocation?
James

Hi James,
the wrapper conf is used only when you use the init script generated (and supposed to be copied in /etc/init.d).
bin/setenv is not used by the wrapper, but by bin/karaf or bin/start script.
