Resolution
Check the current value for Metaspace in the properties.xml in jvmParameters for the affected service. This value may have to be increased.
Example:
If you have -XX:MaxMetaspaceSize=192m
You may want to increase to:
-XX:MaxMetaspaceSize=256m
Also check for anything done on this server during this time (another process that could take all the available RAM).
