Documentation for Bamboo 4.0.x. Documentation for earlier versions of Bamboo is available too.

A simple way to do this is to turn on garbage collection and heap dump on out of memory.

Parameters

Please add the following parameters to Bamboo

-XX:+PrintGCDetails -XX:+PrintGCTimeStamps -verbose:gc -Xloggc:/path/to/gc.log

Note: Remember to substitute /path/to/gc.log with a meaningful file path on your server.

GC log file location

The garbage collection traces and the heap dumps are in <bamboo-install>/gc.log.

Additional Note

The -XX:+PrintGCTimeStamps flag, prints when GCs happen relative to the start of the application.

      Please see this linked EAC page

      If you're running Bamboo with the wrapper or using Bamboo 3.2 or above, then add it to your wrapper.conf file
