You can configure agent properties in the following locations:

• The controller-info.xml file located in the <db_agent_home>/conf directory

• The system properties (-D options) section in the JVM start-up command. The system properties override the settings in the controller-info.xml file. System properties are case-sensitive.

  java -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError -XX:OnOutOfMemoryError=“kill -9 %p” -jar db-agent.jar

  Use the following command if you are using Java >15:

  java -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError -XX:OnOutOfMemoryError=“kill -9 %p” -jar db-agent.jar --add-opens java.base/java.lang=ALL-UNNAMED --add-opens java.base/java.security=ALL-UNNAMED

  Alternatively, you can use a script to start the agent.

  Windows

  /start-dbagent -Xms<min_heap_size> -Xmx<max_heap_size> &

  Linux

  ./start-dbagent -Xms<min_heap_size> -Xmx<max_heap_size> &
