Since 7.4 you can also set the heap size on a Axon.ivy Engine by using jvm.options files

Before 7.4 you need to use the .ilc file for windows this chapter and the .conf file for linux this chapter.

To increasing the default HeapSize of your underlaying tomcat you can modify the designer.ini file and add

-Xmx1024m

For a windows-ivy-server you can set a new environment variable. And use the 'set environment' file to 'setenv.bat' in your 'ivyserverfolder/bin'.

set JAVA_OPTS=-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -Xms128m -Xmx1024m -XX:PermSize=256m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m

If you use Linux export the line in your 'setenv.sh' placed in your 'ivyserverfolder\bin'.

export JAVA_OPTS="-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -Xms128m -Xmx1024m -XX:PermSize=256m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m"

Do not simply set it to your max memory. The error may be in your code.
