If the JVM doesn’t support this method, an exception is thrown. To resolve this issue, you can either upgrade your JVM to a version that supports this method or disable the memory tracking feature in Elasticsearch by setting the “bootstrap.memory_lock” property to false in the Elasticsearch configuration file.
