Avi, I already had my /usr/share/rhn/config-defaults/rhn_taskomatic_daemon.conf set max heap size at 2 GB.
So I further increased it to 3 GB and raised the minimum to 512M. and did a spacewalk-service restart # Initial Java Heap Size (in MB) wrapper.java.initmemory=512 # Maximum Java Heap Size (in MB) wrapper.java.maxmemory=3072 And that worked. And oraclelinux6-x86_64 repo cache finally was finally rebuilt. Cheers :-) Thank you and you have exceeded your own company's response time for a SEV 2 SR. --- Robert Burnett Sr. System Administrator, IT | Verizon Telematics ======================================================================= Avi Miller wrote....

How much memory do you have available for Taskomatic? It's likely that the repo is too large for the default memory limit and it's running out of memory. I know that I've had to bump up the default Taskomatic and Tomcat memory limits to get the metadata to generate. Check /usr/share/rhn/config-defaults/rhn_taskomatic_daemon.conf and tweak the following: # Initial Java Heap Size (in MB) wrapper.java.initmemory=256 # Maximum Java Heap Size (in MB) wrapper.java.maxmemory=2048 (Notice I've bumped my maxmemory up to 2GB in this instance).
