Re: Interesting 4.2.1. Issue...

[Marcus <sh...@gmail.com>]

I'm running 3 mgmt servers on 4.2.1, haven't seen any issues like
that. You can send along your memory settings... here's what I'm
running:

JAVA_OPTS="-Djava.awt.headless=true
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=45219
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false -Xmx2g
-XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError
-XX:HeapDumpPath=/var/log/cloudstack/management/ -XX:PermSize=512M
-XX:MaxPermSize=800m

When the one management server tanks, although the other management server is up and active, it won't actually process any UI commands until the crashed server is restarted.  Example of won't process any UI command is create a new instance, create a new account, etc. After doing some searching I have found that others have noticed java heap errors in 4.2.1, and the suggested fix is to increase the heap size. I am planning on increasing it from 2g to 4g, however if the problem is something like a memory leak, then increasing the heap size will just delay the inevitable. Has anyone else fixed this issue by increasing the heap size? Or what is the recommended value? **updated...as expected I increased the heap size from 2g to 4g, and it just took longer for the problem to reoccur...
> In my honest opinion of bigger concern is the fact that when one management server crashes the other stops functioning as well. So this begs the question of why even bother with a redundant pair of servers..Anybody else experience this issue? I would love to hear any dev guys opinion on this....
