Troubleshooting
Problem
What is a possible resolution for Out of Memory (OOM) errors with entitydeployer target on MCSF 8.5 with IBM JDK?
Symptom
The system goes OOM when deployer.sh executes the target “entitydeployer” with IBM JDK 5.0 (that came along with WebSphere 6.1) on AIX 5.3.
When one executes:
<INSTALL_DIR>/bin/deployer.sh -t entitydeployer
The entityDeployer.log shows this error stack:
dbclassgen.install:

Resolving The Problem
This is only one of the possible resolutions and not an end-all solution. Check for the parameter ADDITIONAL_ANT_JAVA_TASK_ARGS in file <INSTALL_DIR>/properties/sandbox.cfg.
If this parameter is set as “-XX:MaxPermSize=<some value>", then delete it. The java parameter “-XX:MaxPermSize” is not a recognized parameter with the IBM JDK.
Run setupfiles.sh to propagate the changes to all the property and xml files.
Re-build the entitydeployer target.
Contact Sterling Commerce Customer Support if the error persists.
