Maximo 76 TDTOOLKIT Java Out of Memory Error

Troubleshooting


Problem

Attempting to run TDTOOLKIT command for translating Maximo results in an out of memory error.

Symptom

Data for translation is large and can require more memory in order to run than is set by default. The TDTOOLKIT command throws a java heap space error reporting out of memory.
Example:
JVMDUMP010I System dump written to E:\IBM\SMPSBOX\maximo\tools\maximo\core.20210726.121057.18440.0001.dmp JVMDUMP039I Processing dump event "systhrow", detail "java/lang/OutOfMemoryError" at 2021/07/26 12:11:03 - please wait.
