Server has 12 gb; mid-tier tomcat is set to 1536 - the 32-bit tomcat will not run at all if you set it to 2048. Kinetic tomcat is default settings, I believe. When I look at processes mid-tier tomcat is using 718,640 peak and Kinetic tomcat is using 212,596 peak, and they are fluctuating since they are being used. I don't recall seeing the mid-tier tomcat use much more that 7##,### even when I am running a full persistent prefetch.

We have been wrestling with tomcat crashing some point after tomcat5.exe reaches the max.

I was already doing this on my non-R2 development mid-tier server, so maybe I just lucked out when I replicated the setup on the R2 production server. You would need to add that account to the tomcat-users.xml file with a role of manager, too. Permissions to run services appear to be tighter in R2, although the tomcat instance installed in the Kinetic Apps directory - 5.5.20 - which all the Kinetic applications are using, has never had any problem running under the LOCAL SYSTEM account's default permissions. I also had problems with mid-tier 7.1.x installing tomcat in \Program Files\ instead of the correct location \Program Files (x86)\ but you won't see that unless you are on x64 - it is not an R2-specific problem, I don't think. That still is not fixed in 7.1.00.002, which still installs tomcat 5.5.17 but frequently refuses to run with it. BMC Support had me manually install tomcat 5.5.26, which solved both the incorrect path for installation and whatever was going wrong with the patch 2 mid-tier. I still run the service under the domain user account with local power user permissions, and open the ports in the firewall (8080 and 8443). With 7.1.00.002 you have to be on java 1.5.0 - I installed 1.5.0_14 - and give it a nice chunk of memory if you will be using the persistent cache (an absolute necessity with ITSM 7). I have it set to 1536 initial and max and thread stack size 3000.
