java consumes memory and in the top process

[Naveej.K.A]

hi all,

I have recently configured a VA7110 to my RP5470 box. Have installed the SDM command view. I find the java process is consuming more memory and is seen in the top process.

#what /usr/bin/top
/usr/bin/top:

#swlist |grep -i gold
GOLDBASE11i B.11.11.0112.6 Gold Base Patches for HP-UX 11i, December 2001

The recommended patch sets for Command View SDM is only the september 2001 gold patches.

I don't have glance plus or any other monitoring software installed.

#ps -ef |grep java
root 1539 1 0 22:38:16 ? 5:13 /opt/sanmgr/jre/bin/PA_RISC2.0/java -DHAGT=1 -cp classes/jcore.
root 25144 24619 0 09:36:35 ttyp1 0:00 grep java

I'm not swapping or facing any performance issues as of now. but it simply is using too much memory.

Any known issues??

Try to find which java process is running. For instance, you might be using (or have it running) the vxvmsa process, Veritas Volume Management Server Agent. If you have lots of disks, it can take more memory, which might explain your problem. If not using Veritas Volume Management, don't start those deamons.

If you do a kill -QUIT it would generate a coredump and it can be analised by a java expert !

It is never a good idea to trust these tools always. i.e. top/sar/vmstats .... Why not get a glance evaluation copy downloaded ?.

Hi,

Thanks for the replies..

Elmar, As i have already mentioned, i have this java process coming in my top list only after i have installed the Command View SDM for managing my disk array.

What i feel from the ps -ef |grep java o/p is that it is managing some of the components of the disk array which might be java enabled. if i simply kill this process, i'll have still access to the filesystems on the Array, but my armdisocer and armdsp command gives errors.
then i have to do a ./opt/sanmgr/commandview/client/sbin/HA_Dial_stop and ./opt/sanmgr/commandview/client/sbin/HA_Dial_start to get those commands running again.

Please help me out...
Top says its consuming around 225MB of Memory.

and Kapil, I have already got my glance evaluation expired....bad luck!!!

Hi,

Thanks for the replies.
I came to know that this is a very usual thing with CVSDM.
