Automatic deletion of rotated gc.log files
When we want to do GC log rotation then in that case we will have to define few properties together to make it work appropriately like following along with the "-Xloggc" option.
-XX:+UseGCLogFileRotation -XX:NumberOfGCLogFiles=5 -XX:GCLogFileSize=2Mneed to defining NumberOfGClogFiles option will lead to inconsistent JVM options and JVM will not boot like:
So I try this:
HBASE_MASTER_OPTS=" -XX:PermSize=64m -XX:MaxPermSize={{hbase_master_maxperm_size}} -Xms{{hbase_heapsize}} -Xmx{{hbase_heapsize}} -Xmn{{hbase_master_xmn_size}} -XX:CMSInitiatingOccupancyFraction=70 -XX:+UseCMSInitiatingOccupancyOnly -XX:+UseGCLogFileRotation -XX:NumberOfGCLogFiles=3 -XX:GCLogFileSize=20M" .NOTE: Also in my case the JVM was not booting because there is a Typo in my case "-XX:NumberOfGClogFiles" (here I used lowercase log) where as the correct option has Uppercase L in the option like "-XX:NumberOfGCLogFiles"
