how to check heap size allocated for jvm by linux

I have apache-tomcat as my web server. I want to check what heap size is allocated for jvm by linux. Also from where, I can modify it.

Solution

  • You can easily check the heap size memory allocation using JConsole, if you have a path to your jre/jdk set up correctly on the system you should be able to start it with command jconsole from anywhere.
