DG 8 cache configuration memory max-size as non-byte value causes failure

Environment

• Red hat OpenShift Container Platform (OCP)
  • 4.x
• Red Hat Data Grid (RHDG)
  • 8.x

Issue

• Configuring memory max-size as non-byte value causes failure on CacheManager restart
• Setting max-size on DG 8 cache configuration gives an issue
  The following exception happens:

Resolution

If a cache is created at runtime with and global state is enabled, the
org.infinispan.CONFIG cache will fail to startup. If the setting is non-byte it will cause failure.

If one express the value just as a long, i.e. the total value in bytes, then there won't be any issue. The problem arises if you add any string suffix e.g. "B", "MB", "GB".

Workaround
As workaround use Byte at the end ... or use long at the declaration:
.
