Detailed Description and Symptoms

?There are several ways to do this and it depends on what processes the customer wants to add the extra parameters to (RmiServer, AgentService, or both). Take a look at the start commands in the inst.pl file. This is the file that starts the two java processes and you can see the commmand line and then the variables you can set in sosite.

 Solution

In the function to start the RmiServer the following is the command we use: 

$command = "$spawn -p $pidfile \"$java -DAGENT=$OPER $Xrs -Xmx$java_mb $START_OPTION_RMI -DAW_HOME=$AW_HOME -DOsType=$OSTYPE $rmidebug com.appworx.server.data.AxRmiServer\" 1>$logfile 2>&1";

 

The java_mb or START_OPTION_RMI variable are both configurable, depending on how you would like to set it. For example, from my sosite:

START_OPTION_RMI="-verbose:gc -XX:+PrintGCTimeStamps -XX:+PrintGCDetails -Xloggc:$AW_HOME/log/java.log";export START_OPTION_RMI

 

Then when I start my processes, you can see my RmiServer has these parameters:

[email protected]:/u01/users/qa4/qa4/v80 > ps -ef|grep qa4 |grep java

qa4 4465 1 19 17:38 pts/4 00:00:08 java -DAGENT=KLW_X80 -Xmx1024m -verbose:gc -XX:+PrintGCTimeStamps -XX:+PrintGCDetails -Xloggc:/u01/users/qa4/qa4/v80/log/java.log -DAW_HOME=/u01/users/qa4/qa4/v80 -DOsType=UNIX com.appworx.server.data.AxRmiServer

 

There is a similar variable for the AgentService process called START_OPTION_AGENT.
