IssueWhen starting RSA Identity Governance & Lifecycle AFX, some connectors fail to go into a Running state. This is most often seen after an RSA Identity Governance & Lifecycle upgrade or after adding many new connectors to the existing configuration.

The AFX log files located in $AFX_HOME/esb/logs, $AFX_HOME/mmc-console/logs, and $AFX_HOME/activemq/data show OutOfMemoryError errors. For example,
 
INFO  2016-07-12 14:33:35,764 [WrapperListener_start_runner] org.mule.module.launcher.log4j.ArtifactAwareRepositorySelector: Found logging config for application 'AFX-SETTINGS-OpenLDAP' at 'file:/aveksa_afx_tst/AFX/mule/apps/AFX-SETTINGS-OpenLDAP/classes/log4j.xml' ERROR 2016-07-12 14:33:36,463 [WrapperListener_start_runner] org.mule.module.launcher.DefaultArchiveDeployer:

CauseThe ulimits in /etc/security/limits.conf are not configured appropriately causing AFX to run out of memory.
ResolutionPlease refer to RSA Knowledge Base Article 000038069 -- What are the recommended ulimit settings in /etc/security/limits.conf for use with RSA Identity Governance & Lifecycle for instructions on setting ulimits to the appropriate values for use with RSA Identity Governance & Lifecycle and AFX.
