IBM Tivoli Storage Manager V7.1 Implementation — Question 10

Maximo Application Servers (JVMs) are showing poor performance and crashing due to "˜out of memory' errors.
How would you diagnose the situation?

Answer options

• A. increase heap memory
• B. enable application server logging
• C. set maximo root logger to INFO level
• D. enable verbose garbage collection (GC)

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Enabling verbose garbage collection (GC) provides detailed information about memory usage and garbage collection events, which is essential for diagnosing 'out of memory' errors. Increasing heap memory may temporarily alleviate symptoms but doesn't address the root cause. Application server logging and setting the logger to INFO level can help in monitoring but are not as effective for analyzing memory issues.
