Symptoms
MGW fails to start and shows the following error on MGW_GATEWAY view:
ORA-28576: lost RPC connection to external procedure agent
For example, on AIX5L Based Systems (64-bit) the MGW.LOG file displays similar information:
Unable to alloc heap of requested size, perhaps the maxdata value is too small
- see README.HTML for more information.
Unable to allocate an initial java heap of 536870912 bytes.
**Out of memory, aborting**
*** panic: JVMST016: Cannot allocate memory for initial java heap
Changes
Problem occurs after an attempt of increasing the max_memory parameter for the agent
BEGIN DBMS_MGWADM.ALTER_AGENT (
max_threads => 3
,max_connections => 3
,max_memory => 512);
END;
