MAX_MEMORY calculation in nbj.conf

Hello Mates,

 

Is there any thumb rule to calculate the  value for MAX_MEMORY in nbj.conf.

 

we have around 35 policies and 600 jobs in Activity Monitor.

when we were running the restore job , java heap space went out of memory.

 

what is the impact of increasing it ?

 

Regards

S

    Well you will have to raise the value and benchmark for your environmment.. You can also use MEM_USE_WARNING.

    256M is the minimum value you can increment it and see what gives you the best performance

    This technote mentions size 3078M but no explanation why.
