#31 ASEMon process fills up heap memory

[Hardeep]

Hi JPM,
We are using ASEMON almost every Sybase server like ASE, RS and IQ,
This is really a fantastic product that covers almost all features of above mentioned SAP products and provides a detailed monitoring stats to troublshoot any performance issues in a short frame of time.

Well, on few isntances i have noticed that ASEMON process is causing "heap memory" issue on ASE and evnetually ASE stop accepting any new db connection on dataserver. That further leads to an outage on a prod server.

Do you think there are some configuration in ASEMON xml file that I need to tune to avoid such occurences specially in our production serevrs

Really appreciate your help .

Thanks,
Hardeep

Hi Hardeep
to add more heap memory you can change the parameter -Xmx512m to -Xmx2048m (2048 Mb rather than 521Mb) in the asemon_logger.sh or asemon_logger.bat startup script.
I always do that when I monitore several serveurs in a signgle asemon_logger
Best regards
Jpm

Hi Jpm,
Thanks for your response.
We have already max heap memory size for asemon process at 1024Mb and every host has only one ase server with individual asemon_logger process.

00:00:15 java -Xmx1024m -Xms512m -DSYBASE=/dba/sybase/ase/16.0.0.0.28238 -DASEMON_LOGGER_HOME=/dba/sybase/asemon/asemon_logger
