The default memory setting for Esri Maps for IBM Cognos is 2,000 MB. To increase the default memory, you must change the memory setting on each EM4C Server computer in your environment.

  1. Stop all EM4C Server services.
  2. Make a backup of <em4c_location>/server/bin/catalina.sh.
  3. In a text editor, open <em4c_location>/server/bin/catalina.sh and locate the following line:
    JAVA_OPTS="-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -Xms128m -Xmx2000m"
  4. Change -Xmx2000m to the desired memory setting.

    For example:

    JAVA_OPTS="-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -Xms128m -Xmx3000m"

  5. Restart EM4C Server services.
