Increase memory allocation for upgraded server

dev support
1

I recently upgraded a server (ec2). When it was installed it used the lucee default settings for memory of 512. The initial server instance only had 1GB of memory.

It’s instance is running on 2Gb memory now and I want to take advantage of that.

How do i increase the memory allocation? What files do I need to modify?

Thanks,

I don’t know if this is the ideal way. But this is what I did. If its not the best practice let me know. Thanks.

  1. I created a file in setenv.sh in opt/lucee/tomcat/bin
  2. Added the export JAVA_OPTS=“-Xms666m -Xmx666m” line to the setenv.sh file
  3. Rebooted.
  4. ps -ef | grep java

contains: -Xms666m -Xmx666m
