Configure Java Virtual Machines

Configure Java Virtual Machines

To configure a Java Virtual Machine (JVM), set Java options by using the JAVA_OPTS environment variable.
You can set the Java options in the following file:
On UNIX.
<
JBoss installation directory
>/bin/standalone.conf
On Windows.
<
JBoss installation directory
>\bin\standalone.conf.bat
The following table describes the Java options settings:
Java Options
Description
-server
Results in a slower startup but subsequent operations are faster.
-De360.connection.channel
-De360.mdm.host
-De360.mdm.port
Application server communication protocol, host, and port.
To deploy the MDM Hub applications on a JBoss port other than 4447, set the following Java options:
  • -De360.connection.channel
    . Set to the communication protocol that you want to use. Valid values are HTTP and HTTPS. Default is HTTP.
  • -De360.mdm.host
    . Set to the IP address of the JBoss host.
    If the environment uses the HTTPS communication protocol and the security certificate is issued to a Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN), set to the FQDN.
  • -De360.mdm.port
    . Set to the JBoss remote port configured in place of 4447.
If you do not configure these parameters, Data Director screens that are based on the Entity 360 Framework might not work as expected.
-Didd.mdm.host
-Didd.mdm.port
-Didd.protocol
Required for Data Director with subject areas.
To deploy Data Director with subject areas, set the following Java options:
  • -Didd.mdm.host
    . Set to the host name or IP address of the application server host.
  • -Didd.mdm.port
    . Required to deploy using a non-default HTTP or HTTPS listener port. The property is used for deploying the subject area application during server initialization. Specifies the HTTP or HTTPS listener port used by the JVM for the applications. Default is
    8080
    .
  • -Didd.protocol
    . Required property that is used for deploying the subject area application during server initialization. Specifies whether the communication protocol to use is HTTP or HTTPS. Default is
    HTTP
    .
-Ddb2.jcc.charsetDecoderEncoder
Required to use the MDM Hub Sample Operational Reference Store. Enables the JDBC driver to return the Unicode replacement character (U+FFFD) in place of a sequence of bytes that is not a UTF-8 string. Set to
3
.
-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack
Specifies whether Java uses Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4). If the operating system uses Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6), set to
true
.
-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore
-Djavax.net.ssl.trustorePassword
Required if you want to use an HTTPS port for the Process Server.
The
-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore
Java option specifies the path to the truststore file to use for validating client certificates.
The
-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword
Java option specifies the password to access the truststore file.
-Djava.security.egd
Reduces the startup time of Data Director in Linux environments. Set the value to
file:/dev/./urandom
.
-Djboss.as.management.blocking.timeout
Time in seconds to wait for JBoss to deploy. To ensure that JBoss does not fail to start, you can set the value to
5000
. Adjust the time period based on your environment. Default is
300
.
If you do not configure the parameter, you might encounter a JBoss deployment timeout.
-Djgroups.bind_addr
Interface on which JGroup must receive and send messages.
Required in multinode or cluster environments. Ensure that each node binds to its own network interface.
-DFrameworksLogConfigurationPath
Path to the
log4j.xml
file.
-Dmdm.node.groupid
Specifies a group ID for Java Virtual Machines in the MDM Hub implementation. Required only if you want logical groupings of Hub Servers and Process Servers.
-Dsearch.service.port
Required if you want to use smart search with Solr. Required if you want to install multiple Process Servers on the same machine but on different JVMs and enable smart search on all the Process Servers on the machine. This Java option specifies the port used by the JVM for the search service. To avoid port conflicts, use the default port for the JVM of one Process Server, and set this Java option to the relevant port numbers for the JVMs of the remaining Process Servers.
-Dfile.encoding
-Dorg.apache.catalina.connector.URI_ENCODING
Required if you want to use Informatica Data Director and use REST APIs to search for records.
Set both the Java options to
UTF-8
to ensure that you can find and save records that contain UTF-8 characters.
-Dorg.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Protocol.MAX_HEADER_SIZE
Maximum size of the HTTP headers, in bytes. The search requests might fail if the header size is low. Set to
16384
.
-Dtask.pageSize=<maximum number of tasks>
Specifies the maximum number of ActiveVOS tasks that are retrieved for each request. Default is
5000
. Increase the number if your environment has a large number of tasks.
-Dstricttransportsecurity.flag
Specifies whether web browsers must convert all attempts to access
Data Director
using the HTTP requests to the HTTPS requests instead. Set to
true
.
-Xms
Initial heap size. Set to
2048m
.
-Xmx
Maximum JVM heap size. Set to 6 GB or higher.
For example, to set the
-Xmx
to
6144m
, use the following JAVA_OPTIONS environment variable setting:
set "JAVA_OPTIONS=-server ... -Xmx6144m"
XX:+UseCodeCacheFlushing
Specifies whether the JVM disposes of compiled code when the code cache is full.
-XX:ReservedCodeCacheSize
JIT code cache size. To enhance the performance of the MDM Hub environment, set to
512m
.
-XX:MaxMetaspaceSize
Maximum metaspace size. To prevent the JVM from running out of memory, set to
1G
.
