Description

hossman@tray:~/lucene/dev/solr [master] $ bin/solr start -f
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM warning: Option UseConcMarkSweepGC was deprecated in version 9.0 and will likely be removed in a future release.
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM warning: Option UseParNewGC was deprecated in version 9.0 and will likely be removed in a future release.
Unrecognized VM option 'PrintHeapAtGC'
Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine.
Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit.

(untested) workaround is to override GC_LOG_OPTS in solr.in.sh
