Multiple memory configurations using same JBoss instance (HO

[bbalmer]

Using the same JBoss instance (4.0.1) we are running 4 separate servers.

How can I allocate different amounts of memory to each server? If I put the JAVA_OPTS in the run.sh or run.conf the settings apply to all 4 server.

Any ideas.

Low tech solution: make four copies of run.sh (and possibly run.conf) and set the memory in each one.

High tech solution: I assume that each server is a separate configuration (that is, 'run.sh -c config1'), so you can modify the scripts to base the memory size on the configuration passed to the script.

Is there a way to pass the run.conf location to the run.sh on the fly? Then I could just specify multiple run.conf files and let the configuration know which one to use.

I am not a shell script expert, but offhand I would say it is possible.

We are using something like that:

1. start jboss with run.sh start myserver

2. run.myserver.conf:

JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -server -Xms2000m -Xmx2000m ...."

3. run.sh

# --- Read an optional running configuration file
if [ "x$2" = "x" ]; then
 RUN_CONF="$DIRNAME/run.conf"
else
 RUN_CONF="$DIRNAME/run.$2.conf"
fi
if [ -r $RUN_CONF ]; then
 . $RUN_CONF
fi
echo "using configuration file: $RUN_CONF"

Thank you very much. Simple approach that works perfectly.

We have now the following error durinx execution run.sh:

run.sh: unused non-option argument: "Server_name"

Do you have the same one?
