In linux Tomcat bin folder, I want to set JAVA_OPTS for heap memory, I have done settings like export CATALINA_OPTS="-server -Xms1024m -Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m" and then restarting but still my heap memory is not updating.

Can you guide me? Where to put these attributes in catalina.sh or am I missing something or do I have to modify somewhere else?

You should set custom Java options in setenv.sh, not catalina.sh.

Do not set the variables in this script. Instead put them into a script setenv.sh in CATALINA_BASE/bin to keep your customizations separate. (c) catalina.sh

I just fixed the same issue... Earlier I used to modify catalina.sh for that purpose and it worked somehow, but not with my current Tomcat 7.0.52.0.
