Hi all,
Thanks a lot for valuable points. Here the information you guys asked and
the changes I made.

OS : CentOS release 5.4 (Final)
httpd-2.2.3-65.el5.centos(front_end) +(mod_jk)+ apache-tomcat-6.0.37

I installed httpd using yum.
Downloaded tomcat from Apache as compressed archive(tar.gz)

I'm using following startup script.
[root@server ~]# cat /etc/init.d/tomcat6
#!/bin/bash
# description: Tomcat Start Stop Restart
# processname: tomcat
# chkconfig: 234 20 80
JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/default
export JAVA_HOME
PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
export PATH
CATALINA_HOME=/usr/share/apache-tomcat-6.0.37
case $1 in
start)
sh $CATALINA_HOME/bin/startup.sh
;;
stop)
sh $CATALINA_HOME/bin/shutdown.sh
;;
restart)
sh $CATALINA_HOME/bin/shutdown.sh
sh $CATALINA_HOME/bin/startup.sh
;;
esac
exit 0

As you said, I removed the JAVA_OPTS declaration from .bash_profile and I
have created setenv.sh and set JAVA_OPTS in it.
[root@server bin]# pwd
/usr/share/apache-tomcat-6.0.37/bin

[root@server bin]# cat setenv.sh
export JAVA_OPTS='-Xms256m -Xmx512m -Xss512k -verbose:gc -Xloggc:heap.log'

Now it shows in grep.
[root@server bin]# ps aux | grep Bootstrap
root      1100 33.7  5.4 707052 95240 pts/0    Sl   11:29   0:06
/usr/java/default/bin/java
-Djava.util.logging.config.file=/usr/share/apache-tomcat-6.0.37/conf/logging.properties
-Djava.util.logging.manager=org.apache.juli.ClassLoaderLogManager -Xms256m
-Xmx512m -Xss512k -verbose:gc -Xloggc:heap.log
-Djava.endorsed.dirs=/usr/share/apache-tomcat-6.0.37/endorsed -classpath
/usr/share/apache-tomcat-6.0.37/bin/bootstrap.jar
-Dcatalina.base=/usr/share/apache-tomcat-6.0.37
-Dcatalina.home=/usr/share/apache-tomcat-6.0.37
-Djava.io.tmpdir=/usr/share/apache-tomcat-6.0.37/temp
org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap start
root      1158  0.0  0.0   3932   692 pts/0    R+   11:29   0:00 grep
Bootstrap
[root@server bin]#

But nothing came in heap.log. So I better monitor this and if I get the OOM
again I have to increase Max limit!
