generate-jvm-report

shows the JVM machine statistics for a given target instance

Synopsis

generate-jvm-report [--help] [--type=jvm-statistic-type] [--target target]

Description

The generate-jvm-report subcommand creates a report that shows the threads (dump of stack trace), classes, memory, or loggers for a given target instance, including the domain administration server (DAS). If a type is not specified, a summary report is generated. This subcommand only provides statistics for the \{product---name} instance processes. This subcommand provides an alternative to sending Ctrl+Break or kill -3 signals to \{product---name} processes to obtain a stack trace for processes that are hanging.

The information in the report is obtained from managed beans (MBeans) and MXBeans that are provided in the Java Platform, Standard Edition (Java SE ) or JDK software with which \{product---name} is being used.

If \{product---name} is running in the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) software from JDK release 6 or Java SE 6, additional information is provided. For example:

  • System load on the available processors

  • Object monitors that are currently held or requested by a thread

  • Lock objects that a thread is holding, for example, ReentrantLock objects and ReentrantReadWriteLock objects

If the JRE software cannot provide this information, the report contains the text NOT_AVAILABLE.

This subcommand is supported in remote mode only.

Displays the help text for the subcommand.

--target

Specifies the target for which you are showing JVM machine statistics.

server

Specifies the DAS (default).

instance-name

Specifies a \{product---name} instance.

cluster-name

Specifies a cluster.

configuration-name

Specifies a named configuration.

--type

The type of report that is to be generated. Default is summary.

summary

Displays summary information about the threads, classes, and memory (default).

memory

Provides information about heap and non-heap memory consumption, memory pools, and garbage collection statistics for a given target instance.

class

Provides information about the class loader for a given target instance.

thread

Provides information about threads running and the thread dump (stack trace) for a given target instance.

log

Provides information about the loggers that are registered in the Virtual Machine for the Java platform (Java Virtual Machine or JVM machine).Foot 1

Example 1   Obtaining Summary Information for the JVM Machine

This example shows a partial listing of a report that is generated if no type is specified. This same report is generated if the summary type is specified.

asadmin> generate-jvm-report
