Symptoms

Planning Weblogic has a java.lang.OutOfMemoryError, however, (in this case scenario), there is 24Gb RAM total and 12Gb RAM free.

ERROR][thread ] Could not start thread pool-16-thread-1. Resource temporarily unavailable
<BEA-101017> <[ServletContext@644897932[app:PLANNING module:HyperionPlanning path:/HyperionPlanning spec-version:2.5 version:11.1.2.0]] Root cause of ServletException.
java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Resource temporarily unavailable in tsStartJavaThread (lifecycle.c:1097).

Attempting to allocate 8096M bytes

There is insufficient native memory for the Java
Runtime Environment to continue.

Possible reasons:
The system is out of physical RAM or swap space
In 32 bit mode, the process size limit was hit

Possible solutions:
Reduce memory load on the system
Increase physical memory or swap space
Check if swap backing store is full
Use 64 bit Java on a 64 bit OS
Decrease Java heap size (-Xmx/-Xms)
Decrease number of Java threads
Decrease Java thread stack sizes (-Xss)
Disable compressed references (-XXcompressedRefs=false)

* If it isn't memory / RAM, so it's going to be something like 'open files', 'max user processes' or 'stack size', however, the values in '/etc/security/limit.conf' look fine.
