Adjust server memory allocation

The default installation uses 640 m (megabytes) as the maximum memory allocation settings. This is fine for evaluation purposes but should be increased in production installations to avoid running out of memory.

Tip:

Set the Xmx/Xms values to 50% of the server's total ram.

  1. Open the [POLARION_HOME]/polarion.ini file in a text editor.

  2. Adjust the following values to half of the server's total RAM:

    -Xms650m

    -Xmx650m

    (Use MEGABYTES as the measure. For example, for 2 GB, specify –Xmx2000m.)

  3. Save the changed file.

  4. Reinstall the Windows Service.

    C:\Polarion\polarion\service.bat -install

    1. Make sure the Polarion server is not running

    2. Run the following utility:

      C:\Polarion\polarion\service.bat -install

  5. Restart Polarion.
