stack resolved HBASE-3603. -------------------------- Resolution: Fixed Assignee: stack Hadoop Flags: [Reviewed] Removed in TRUNK. > Remove -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError autodump of heap option on OOME > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HBASE-3603 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-3603 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Task > Reporter: stack > Assignee: stack > Priority: Minor > > By default the -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError option is set for HBase. > Means we'll dump heap when we OOME. In the heaps we run with 8G, 16G, etc., > these can make for hefty files. No one really looks at these things other > than a few weirdos and even then, the interesting ones are too big to ship > easily. Meantime, they can cause headache. E.g. you are on EC2, root is but > a small partition, and you set up hbase on root partition... a heap dump > could cause your root partition to fill and make the machine unapproachable. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
