Increasing RAM available to the MVP Server

The default maximum memory of the JVM running MVP Server is 512 MB. However, systems managing a large number of devices and running certain memory-intensive tasks might need an additional allocation of maximum JVM heap memory.

To increase the JVM heap memory for Windows:

1. Stop the MarkVision Server.

2. Open the registry editor by typing regedit in the command line.

3. Navigate to:

   HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE --> SOFTWARE --> Lexmark --> MarkVision Server --> Granite --> 1.0

4. Modify the key Jvm_Options with value -ms256M -mx1024M.

5. Close the registry editor, and then restart the MarkVision Server.

To increase the JVM heap memory for UNIX, Linux, or Mac OS:

1. Stop the MarkVision Server.

2. Open the shell script /usr/mv_pro/bin/MvService.sh, and then navigate to the function setJavaVars().

3. Inside this function find the following line:

   JVM_ARGS="-ms256M -mx512M"

4. Modify the line to read: JVM_ARGS="-ms256M -mx1024M".

5. Save the shell script, and then restart the MarkVision Server.
