OutOfDirectMemoryError: failed in Logstash logs

[madurad (Madura)]

Hi,
Continuously getting OutOfDirectMemoryError: failed error on Logstash, I chekced the host memory usage and CPU all good and memory is around 60% used, but no clear idea how this issue is being happened.

In jvm.options following values has been set too,

-Xms2g
-Xmx2g

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

The point here is not the host memory but the one you allocated to logstash, as you got 2097152000/1024/1024/1024=1.9Go used of the 2 you allocated.
You should check the performance tunning section in order to learn how to monitor / improve your consumption.

It doesn't matter much what your heap size is, direct memory is not allocated from the heap.
