Configure the Java wrapper

Java wrappers are classes that offer utility methods to manipulate application values. IXIA CCMS Scheduler's wrapper.conf file is used to identify CCMS Scheduler's Java libraries, maximum Java heap size, and what information will be logged.

To configure the CCMS Scheduler's Java wrapper:

  1. Open the wrapper.conf file in the %SchedulerDir%/conf directory.
    Note: If this is the first time that you are modifying the wrapper.conf file, open the wrapper.conf.empty file and save it as wrapper.conf (remove the .empty suffix).
  2. Edit the wrapper.java.command value so that it points to your Java executable:
    For Windows:
    #********************************************************************
    # Wrapper Java Properties
    #********************************************************************
    # Java Application
    wrapper.java.command=c:\Program Files\Java\jre<version of java>\bin\java.exe
    For Linux:
    #********************************************************************
    # Wrapper Properties
    #********************************************************************
    # Java Application
    wrapper.java.command=/usr/java/jdk1.7.0_51/jre/java
  3. Configure the Java heap size:
    # Maximum Java Heap Size (in MB)
    wrapper.java.maxmemory=1024
    Note: Maximum heap size is the maximum amount of unused dynamic memory the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) is allowed to allocate for Scheduler activities. The recommended value is 1024 MB.
  4. Configure at what level Scheduler events will be logged:
    # Log Level for log file output.  (See docs for log levels)
    wrapper.logfile.loglevel=INFO
    Note: Possible event levels are (in order of severity): DEBUG, INFO, WARN, ERROR. Events are logged for the indicated level and all levels above it. For example, if you enter WARN as the level, both WARN and ERROR events will be logged.
  5. Configure additional wrapper parameters if desired.
  6. When you are done, save and close the wrapper.conf file.
