I added the "-d64" option to the JAVA\_OPTS environment variable in elasticsearch.in.sh. The following was added: JAVA\_OPTS="$JAVA\_OPTS -d64" When the process is running, I don't see the "-d64" being a part of the process command. Is "-d64" recognized? Thanks. ---

It should work, as it works for the other parameters. I just added it as a test and its good. Maybe you want to gist how you added it?

Shay, in the elasticsearch.in.sh I added this line: JAVA\_OPTS="$JAVA\_OPTS -d64" The following is the process I see: elastic 4496 1 52 09:27 pts/1 03:16:40 /usr/java/latest/bin/ java -Xms256m -Xmx1g -Xss128k -XX:+UseParNewGC -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -XX:+CMSParallelRemarkEnabled -XX:SurvivorRatio=8 - XX:MaxTenuringThreshold=1 -XX:CMSInitiatingOccupancyFraction=75 -XX: +UseCMSInitiatingOccupancyOnly -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError - Delasticsearch -Des.path.home=/opt/elasticsearch -cp :/opt/ elasticsearch/lib/elasticsearch-0.17.1.jar:/opt/elasticsearch/lib/_😕 opt/elasticsearch/lib/sigar/_ -Xms1g -Xmx3g org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.Elasticsearch > On Thu, Jul 28, 2011 at 4:12 PM, Ed Brown VSTI [edbrownv...@gmail.com](mailto:edbrownv...@gmail.com)wrote: > > > I added the "-d64" option to the JAVA\_OPTS environment variable in > > elasticsearch.in.sh.

Obviously, it works for all the other JAVA\_OPTS being set in elasticsearch.in.sh, since we see them... . Maybe you are changing the wrong elasticsearch.in.sh?
