How to start RDM server 'cleanly'
So we have an RDM instance that was working fine, until we loaded a large service model. We were getting an OutOfMemoryError and the server crashed. The problem we have now is it looks as though everytime we restart it tries to rerun the job as part of a persisted job state and obviously it then crashes and doesn't allow us to login. I am wondering if it's possible to start the server in a 'clean' state where it will not retry previous jobs. We are also putting a bug report in for this.
One answer
What is your heap size? You can determine that by examining the "-Xmx" setting in serverstartup file in the <dm>/server folder. For "large" models you should be running DM on a 64-bit server with at least 8GB physical memory and the Xmx setting should be in the range of 4000-8000M (4-8 GB).
