Restjavad may become unstable if the amount of memory required by the daemon exceeds the value allocated for its use.
The overall system performance is degraded during the continuous restart of the restjavad daemon due to a relatively high CPU usage.
The memory required by the restjavad daemon may grow significantly in system configurations with either a high volume of device statistics collection (AVR provisioning), or a with relatively large number of LTM objects managed by the REST framework (SSL Orchestrator provisioning).
Increase the memory allocated for the restjavad daemon (e.g., 2 GB), by running the following commands in a BIG-IP terminal. tmsh modify sys db restjavad.useextramb value true tmsh modify sys db provision.extramb value 2048 bigstart restart restjavad Note this may lead to impact on multi-module systems with ASM as approximately only 50-60% of provision.extramb value would be allocated as extra host memory and restjavad may take up to 80% of provision.extramb. It also lowers the ASM specific host allocation resulting in some tighter memory contraints on ASM daemons. Try to use the smallest value that works.
