IBM Security Identity Governance and Intelligence, Version 5.2.3.1

Adding a JVM property

As part of configuring an application server, you might define settings that enhance the way your operating system uses of the Java™ virtual machine (JVM). Use the steps to add a JVM property in the Application server.

About this task

The JVM is an interpretive computing engine that is responsible for running the byte codes in a compiled Java program. The JVM translates the Java byte codes into the default instructions of the host server. The application server, being a Java process, requires a JVM to run and to support the Java applications that run on it. JVM settings are part of an application server configuration.

Access the command-line interface (CLI) of the virtual appliance by using either an ssh session or the console.

To see a list of available commands, enter the help command at the command-line prompt. The help command provides detailed information about each command from the list.
