setenv.[sh|bat] as appropriate for your platform. > Also I've seen configurations with JAVA_OPS > and CATALINA_OPS. Which is the preferred there? Generally, CATALINA_OPTS When Tomcat is stopped, a second process is created that creates a connection to the shutdown port of the main process and provides the shutdown command. CATALINA_OPTS applies only the main process JAVA_OPTS applies to both You are unlikely to want your memory settings (or any other settinsg for that matter) for the main process to be applied to the shutdown process.
