THE DEFAULT SETTINGS FOR JVM HEAP SIZE MAY NOT BE ADEQUATE FOR LARGE ENVIRONMENTS

By default, we set the Maximum Heap size to 1024.

This may cause a problem with memory available to WAS:

Exceptions visible in the logs:

2012/05/30 11:30:47:545 CAT] 00000016 TimerImpl     E ASYN0012E:  Alarm/Timer threw exception commonj.work.WorkCompletedException: java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.OutOfMemoryError
Caused by: java.lang.OutOfMemoryError  at java.lang.String.(String.java:365) at com.ibm.license.mgmt.dao.ProductReplacementDAO$ReplacingBranchVO.depure(Unknown Source)  at com.ibm.license.mgmt.dao.ProductReplacementDAO$ReplacingBranchVO.(Unknown Source)  at com.ibm.license.mgmt.dao.ProductReplacementDAO.getBranch(Unknown Source)

This may happen during aggregation, catalog import,recalculation.

Local fix
a) increase the WebSphere JVM memory, by navigating  from Tivoli
Integrated Portal to  > Settings > WebSphere Administrative Console > Launch console

 > In the WebSphere web console, select Servers -> Server Types

WebSphere application servers -> Server Infrastructure -> Java and Process Management -> Process definition

 > In Additional Properties section, select Java Virtual Machine

 > In General Properties section, increase the values for "Initial heap size" and for "Maximum heap size".

b) restart the server

In some cases reverting aggregation process may be necessary.
