[Solved] OutofMemory Exception on Java Application running on Docker Containers

We recently came across a issue where the java application was frequently facing the OutofMemory Exception.

Usually the Java based applications use the parameters -XX:MaxRAMPercentage / -XX:MinRAMPercentage are used to restrict the heap utilization within certain % limits from 1 to 100 which holds good when you running these applications on the virtual instances like EC2.

But when you running them on containers than VM allocates a larger fraction of memory to the Java Heap. To turn off this behaviour, set the -XX:-UseContainerSupport

When -XX:MaxRAMPercentage / -XX:InitialRAMPercentage are used with -XX:+UseContainerSupport, the corresponding heap setting is determined based on the memory limit of the container.

It should have been  apiVersion   k.So just a difference of block letter can make that error. The same error will occur even if you forgot to mention the apiVersion in the configuration or it is misspelled. Below configuration will work fine. apiVersion: v1 kind: Pod metadata: name: pod2 spec: containers: - name: c1 image: nginx   Explanation:- apiVersion is hardcoded in the kubernetes.
