So BMC Support wants us to make some changes - specifically they want us to bump our arserverd.conf file (under /<install dir>/ar/bin) to 10 GB for the max heap size. This is the baseline recommendation for a customer our size.
Obviously we're a larger user - two servers in the server group, thousands of incidents a day. Right now the server (Linux) has 30 GB of memory but freemem shows only a few hundred MB free. But then again this is Linux, so "free" memory isn't the same as Windows - the OS takes it and redistributes it as needed (there's some kind of political joke to be made in there....). Has anyone run into this? I'm not sure how to tell what will happen if we bump it. We're at 6GB Max Heap size right now. My secondary problem is our test servers only have 8GB of memory, so there's no way to test this on a different environment. I did successfully blow up the dev server by setting it to that thinking "Maybe it won't try to use it all". I was wrong...
