INFORMATION
In a high-volume multimedia environment, the default ElasticSearch maximum memory size may be insufficient, and the service may restart on occasion, causing an alarm ALM0155. Use the following steps to increase this maximum:
1. Open a DOS command prompt window.
2. Run the following command: C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\lib\elasticsearch\tools\elasticsearch-1.4.1\bin\service.bat manager
3. In the Java tab, increase the "Maximum memory pool" value (2048 for 2GB limit, 3072 for 3GB limit, etc...). Feel free to set it as high as half the system memory - it will not immediately max out, but will only grow as needed.
4. Press OK, then restart the ElasticSearch service.
