UCS service failing with “Java out of memory” issue

[Ricky]

Hi All,

We are getting java out of memory error many times which is causing performance issue on call back. Current memory of the JVM is 512 MB(32 Bit).

Can any one advise that increasing the JVM memory can help in this issue. Below is the UCS logs-

Increasing of the memory will fix just the symptom of the issue (the out of memory issue), but you still need to find why the memory is allocated to much - it might be caused by incorrect sizing, wrong archiving, slow responses from RDBMS, missing indexes, etc. Strongly recommend to look for root-cause, not just increase the memory.

512 M is very little for UCS...

The latest 8.5 versions of UCS has 2048 M dedicated in the ContactServer.ini file if I remember correctly

Agree, UCS consumes a lot by default, previous was 1024, now increased to 2048.
If issue happens again at 2048 check what kubig suggests, fix the root problem.
