How to create a HeapDump for out of memory error on the AppServer (8419)

What to do when you want to find an Out of Memory error (8419) on the AppServer

To troubleshoot an OOM you can do the following:

Set the parameter  -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError , so you can trap the error if the  issue happens again.

To create a Java memory dump the next time the JAVA OOM occurs, modify the file:

$DLC/properties/AdminServerPlugins.properties

In the section:

[PluginPolicy.Progress.AdminServer]

Add the parameter:-XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError

Example:

jvmArgs =- Xmx1024m -DLogLevel = 5 -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError

In some cases it may be advisable to add -DLogLevel=5 to catch more details when this happens however this may cause significant additional messages to be written to the admserv.log.

Research needed on adding this -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError specifically to the ubroker.properties for the AppServer in question to create a Java memory dump,
as opposed to the AdminServer.
