I have installed SumoLogic Collector in a Linux 64 bit server with 2GB memory. The version is SumoCollector-19.253-3.x86_64. I haven't specified any setting for Sumologic collector ( I assumed it will use 128MB from documentation). The collector only collects 4 local files and send them out.

Recently when I open the user.properties file again, I saw one new line added as below

wrapper.filter.trigger.1000=java.lang.OutOfMemoryError

What will be the impact of this error? I checked the host still can send data out to Sumo. Any steps I should check to decide whether I need to increase the memory for the collector?

  Hi Wilson,

  This entry in the user.properties file is currently expected and normal and does not mean there is, or has been, an error with your Collector. This property is added automatically at install time and tells the wrapper process what to look for and what to do if it does detect an out of memory problem with the collector process. 

  It sounds like your Collector is operating normally. The only time you should need to adjust the memory settings is if you start to observe out of memory error messages within the /logs/collector.log or /logs/collector.out.log files.

  Thank you Kevin for your clarification. Just checked the two logs files and no such error found. Looks like there is no issue.
