## Synopsis
```shell copy
codeql resolve ram [--ram=<MB>] <options>...
```
## Description
\[Deep plumbing] Prepare RAM options.
This deep plumbing command prepares appropriate command-line options to
start a subcommand that will execute a QL query evaluator. It knows
appropriate heuristics for deciding whether to keep some of the
configured memory outside the Java heap.
In particular, this should be used to find appropriate `-J-Xmx` and
`--off-heap-ram` options before staring a query server based on a
desired _total_ RAM amount.
## Primary options
#### `--format=<fmt>` <!-- markdownlint-disable-line heading-increment -->
Select output format. Choices include:
`lines` _(default)_: Print command-line arguments on one line each.
`json`: Print them as a JSON array.
### Options from the invoking command's command line
#### `-M, --ram=<MB>`
Set total amount of RAM the query evaluator should be allowed to use.
### Common options
#### `-h, --help`
Show this help text.
#### `-J=<opt>`
\[Advanced] Give option to the JVM running the command.
(Beware that options containing spaces will not be handled correctly.)
#### `-v, --verbose`
Incrementally increase the number of progress messages printed.
#### `-q, --quiet`
Incrementally decrease the number of progress messages printed.
#### `--verbosity=<level>`
\[Advanced] Explicitly set the verbosity level to one of errors,
warnings, progress, progress+, progress++, progress+++. Overrides `-v`
and `-q`.
#### `--logdir=<dir>`
\[Advanced] Write detailed logs to one or more files in the given
directory, with generated names that include timestamps and the name of
the running subcommand.
(To write a log file with a name you have full control over, instead
give `--log-to-stderr` and redirect stderr as desired.)
