I have a Solr install with the following info on the process list:

Process started Sep27, with G1 tuning, but no parameters setting specific generation sizes.

Here's the info at the top of a GC log written by that process:

2018-10-29 05:47:53 GC log file created /data/solr-home/logs/solr_gc.log.6
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (25.162-b12) for linux-amd64 JRE (1.8.0_162-b12), built on Dec 19 2017 21:15:48 by "java_re" with gcc 4.3.0 20080428 (Red Hat 4.3.0-8) Memory: 4k page, physical 16268024k(163252k free), swap 2098172k(2056676k free) CommandLine flags: -XX:+AggressiveOpts -XX:CICompilerCount=3 -XX:ConcGCThreads=1 -XX:G1HeapRegionSize=8388608 -XX:GCLogFileSize=20971520 -XX:InitialHeapSize=8329887744 -XX:InitiatingHeapOccupancyPercent=75 -XX:+ManagementServer -XX:MarkStackSize=4194304 -XX:MaxGCPauseMillis=250 -XX:MaxHeapSize=8329887744 -XX:MaxNewSize=4991221760 -XX:MinHeapDeltaBytes=8388608 -XX:NumberOfGCLogFiles=9 -XX:OnOutOfMemoryError=/data/solr/bin/oom_solr.sh 8983 /data/solr-home/logs -XX:+ParallelRefProcEnabled -XX:+PerfDisableSharedMem -XX:+PrintGC -XX:+PrintGCApplicationStoppedTime -XX:+PrintGCDateStamps -XX:+PrintGCDetails -XX:+PrintGCTimeStamps -XX:+PrintHeapAtGC -XX:+PrintTenuringDistribution -XX:ThreadStackSize=256 -XX:+UseCompressedClassPointers -XX:+UseCompressedOops -XX:+UseFastUnorderedTimeStamps -XX:+UseG1GC -XX:+UseGCLogFileRotation -XX:+UseLargePages

As you can see, the gc log says that -XX:MaxNewSize is among the parameters.  The problem came to my attention when I put the gc log into the gceasy.io website and it said "don't set your generation sizes explicitly, G1 works better when they aren't explicit."  Which I thought was weird, because I didn't know of anywhere that the sizes were being set.  I don't WANT to set the generation sizes explicitly.

I have confirmed by cross-referencing pids, checking which pid has the logfile open, and watching for new data written to the same log that it is indeed the same process, so I know the commandline arguments from the ps listing are from the right process.

Here's the version info for the java version that's running:

[solr@RWVM-SolrDev03 logs]$ java -version
java version "1.8.0_162"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_162-b12)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.162-b12, mixed mode)

I cannot reproduce the behavior manually on a Windows 10 machine,  either with the same version that's on the Linux machine or using 8u_191.  The machine where I see this happening is running CentOS 7.  Hopefully I will be in a position to restart the service on the machine in the near future so I can check whether the issue is persistent.

I will attempt to reproduce on another Linux machine.  Does this seem like a bug?

Thanks,
Shawn
