Configure memory settings (traditional)

When changing memory settings, make sure you don't over-allocate the total memory of the application server. Monitor usage and make sure to leave enough memory for system processes to run smoothly. For information, see Resource sizing for your application server.

  4. Scroll to the bottom of the page and click Save. A message confirms that your settings were saved.

  5. To apply settings, you must restart the application:

    • Immediately — Select Restart now.

    • Later — Select Cancel and Restart later.
