алкиваемся с проблемой ниже в нашей производственной среде непредсказуемым образом, иногда сервер отключается через день или иногда через неделю, ниже приведен точный дамп ошибки, ниже приведены настройки сервера.

JDK: jdk1.6.0_21
Server: Tomcat 7.0.2
OS: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.5

В catalina.sh была сделана следующая настройка:

JAVA_OPTS="-Xms1024M -Xmx1536M -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError -XX:+AggressiveOpts 
-XX:-DisableExplicitGC  -XX:AdaptiveSizeThroughPutPolicy=0  
-XX:+UsePSAdaptiveSurvivorSizePolicy

-XX:+UseAdaptiveGenerationSizePolicyAtMajorCollection -XX:PermSize=768M 
-XX:MaxPermSize=768M    -XX:+PrintGCDetails -Xloggc:/tmp/gcLogs.txt"

export CATALINA_OPTS="-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=22222 
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=true -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false
