abap/heap_area_total: Total Quota for Heap Memory

Use

This parameter determines the upper limit of private memory (heap memory) in bytes available to all work processes of an application server instance. You can use this upper limit to restrict the swap space usage of an application server instance to a specific amount.

Integration

The graphic below shows the relationship with profile parameters abap/heap_area_dia, abap/heap_area_nondia, em/proc_max_size_MB, and abap/heap_area_total.

Activities

The value is specified in bytes.

The kernel default is calculated using the following formula: ($(PHYS_MEMSIZE) * 1024 * 1024). This value should not normally be changed.
