out of memory issues on IBM AIX and IBM JDK 1.4.2 J9 version

[Former Member]

Hi,

We are having out of memory issue on IBM AIX 5.3 version and IBM JDK 1.4.2 J9. All the settings for jvm parameters have been made as per sap recommendations. Now that we need to debug this issue using some java profiler tool. We tried using Sherlok but this does't seem to work on AIX platform. SAP Memory analyzer is a great tool but unfortunately is not supported with IBM JDK.

so what is the best way to troubleshoot out of memory heap issues ? which tools needs to be used for ibm platform and ibm jdk ?

How come Sherlok doesn't work ? Does it bind to JVM properly ?

Maybe try to upgrade your kernel first.
