Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM WebSphere Application * * Server V8.0 using the Adminstrative console * * to manage 64 bit servers. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The console will throw an exception * * with heap sizes that are set greater * * than 2048 MB. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** The console is using an integer to save heap size values. This is not large enough for 64 bit architectures.
Problem conclusion
The console changed from using an Integer to using a Long to calculate heap size values. The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix pack 8.0.0.4.
