Hi All,

My Tomcat node01 is going down constantly throwing an error message

As I am confused after browsing about setting heapsize and permsize of Tomcat, thought it would be better to post my query here.
Could anyone please give a brief description of this both and how to set them when Tomcat is installed as a service?
Also I am confused how to calculate the max size of these both. I did not get anything relevant when I was browsing.

Environment has installed apache server 2.2 which has load balancing concept implemented with 3 tomcat(5.5.25) nodes.
Please be informed that node01 is going down constantly. It has nearly 5 applications installed on it.

Could anyone please share your thoughts on this?

Don't get me started about those stupid light bulbs.
