KB5009: How to modify the Java heap size setting of CloudBacko for Linux?

To modify the Java heap size of CloudBacko installation on Linux, amend the following files:

For Linux:

• ${CloudBacko-Install-Home}/config.ini
• ${CloudBacko-Install-Home}/bin/RunCB.sh
• ${CloudBacko-Install-Home}/bin/RunBackupSet.sh

Steps:

1. Open the config.ini, RunCB.sh & RunBackupSet.sh files with a text editor.

2. In config.ini, find the line that starts with:

app.system.ui.vm.opt.xmx=2048

3. In RunCB.sh & RunBackupSet.sh, find the line that starts with:

JAVA_OPTS="-Xrs -Xms128m -Xmx2048m -client"

4. Amend the line by changing the value "xmx=2048" & "-Xmx2046m" to "xmx=4096" & "-Xmx4096m"  (value in MB) (depending on the amount of free system memory available)

6. Save the changes and restart the CloudBacko machine.
