Catalina Java Properties

fcrepo.home=<some-writable-directory>

Sets the home for Fedora's persisted data. Without this setting Fedora tries to use the current-working-directory as the home of persisted data. If the Tomcat user does not have write access to the installation area (e.g. /var/lib/tomcat7), then Fedora 4 5 will not deploy. Set this system property to a directory writable by the tomcat process.

JVM Tuning Properties

We have a separate page with suggested VM options for general Java tuning.
