The Java Virtual Machine (JVM) enables Java byte codes to run on a physical machine. Tuning the JVM settings improves performance and avoids memory allocation errors.
The Java Virtual Machine is included in the Java Platform, Standard Edition (Java SE platform), which is required by the Payara Server. Incorrect JVM settings will prevent the server from running, so use care when changing these settings.
Note:
The terms "Java Virtual Machine" and "JVM" mean a Virtual Machine for the Java platform.
The JVM General Settings page contains the following options.
Button to restore settings that have default values to their default values. Settings that do not have default values are not changed.
The name of the configuration to which the settings on this page apply. This field is read only.
The name of the installation directory of the Java SE software, which is required for Payara Server to run. If you enter a nonexistent directory name or the directory for an unsupported version of Java SE software, Payara Server will not start.
The command-line options for the Java programming language compiler. The Payara Server runs the compiler when Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB) components are deployed.
Enables debugging with the Java Platform Debugger Architecture (JPDA).
JPDA is used by application developers.
Specifies the JPDA options passed to the JVM when debugging is enabled.
The command-line options for the rmic
compiler. The Payara Server runs the rmic
compiler when EJB components are deployed.
Names of classes for bytecode preprocessing. Use commas to separate class names. Each class must implement the com.sun.appserv.BytecodePreprocessor interface. The classes are called in the order specified.
Additional properties for the JVM. The Payara Server does not define any additional properties for the JVM.
None.
