"How do I change the maximum amount of memory RapidMiner Server is using"


Problem:
The maximum amount of memory RapidMiner Server uses is specified in a settings file and has to be changed by hand.
Solution:
To manually alter the maximum amount of memory an already installed RapidMiner Server uses, follow these steps:
On Windows:
-
Open the bin/standalone.conf.bat file in your RapidMiner Server installation directory.
-
Search for the line which contains the following fragment (number might differ) and replace the number with the amount of memory you want the server to use (in megabytes):
-Xmx1024M
-
Restart RapidMiner Server.
On Linux / Mac:
-
Open the bin/standalone.conf file in your RapidMiner Server installation directory.
-
Search for the line which contains the following fragment (number might differ) and replace the number with the amount of memory you want the server to use (in megabytes):
-Xmx1024m
-
Restart RapidMiner Server.
Comments
I believe this is a bit outdated, I also had to modify the max-memory.conf file in ./standalone/configuration before the actual values were changed.
