How to increase HEAP size when activating AWI via the Jetty Launcher?

Environment

V21

Resolution

You can add the '-Xmx' to the start command for the AWI. For example, say this is the start command you are using:

C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_311\bin\java -jar aa-webui-launcher.jar

You can add this to the command to increase the heap space:

C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_311\bin\java -jar -Xmx2048M aa-webui-launcher.jar

This is then reflected in the log file with the following message:

 [com.uc4.webui.logback.osgi.EnvironmentLogger] - Runtime information Maximum Memory                            = 1908MB
