I’m trying to grant more memory to ElasticSearch, as we’re seeing some performance issues and I’m trying to troubleshoot how we can improve them. However, I keep hitting road blocks when trying to set any -Xmx and/or -Xms parameters
My latest attempt seems to have worked (at least, the Helm chart doesn’t give any problems anymore and the Pod is not stuck in a CrashLoopBackoff anymore). However, I have no clue if what I did actually worked or had an impact.
I added this line to my to my sonarProperties
:
sonar.search.javaOpts: -Xms2g -Xmx2g
Is there a way to check the Pod to ensure that ES is indeed running with these settings? And is there a guide I can follow that contains instructions on what parameters to set when you want to grant more memory to ES?
