How to enable verbose:gc in the Message Processor for Private Cloud 16.0x

[jghunt]

To enable the -verbose:gc option in Private Cloud 16.0x, do the following:

1. Edit the file,

/opt/apigee/edge-message-processor/bin/start

and find the last line in the file, it starts with:

exec $JAVA -classpath "$classpath" -Xms$min_mem -Xmx$max_mem

2. Edit and append after -Xmx$max_mem the following:

-verbose:gc -XX:+PrintGCDetails -XX:+PrintGCTimeStamps -Xloggc:/opt/apigee/var/log/edge-message-processor/logs/gc.log

3. The above change would require a restart of the message processor

/opt/apigee/apigee-service/bin/apigee-service edge-message-processor restart

4. repeat for all your message processors

NOTE: The verbose:gc does not cause any additional performance overhead and is safe to enable in production.

Hi,

It seems we are not able to see gc.log even after enabling the above parameters in our message-processor.

We are at version 4.16.09. Can someone please help
