  A container server cannot be started from a Linux 64-bit
  installation of WebSphere eXtreme Scale on WebSphere
  Application Server. Overuse of heap memory can occur if
  threads are not continually being used. Log messages that
  should appear with tracing disabled are not displayed when
  tracing is disabled.
  

Problem conclusion

• The code has been updated to include the necessary libraries
  that prevented container startup, to optimize memory usage, and
  to log messages appropriately.
