CMG 2006, December 7, Session 534, Paper 6033
Abstract
The Java Platform provides a variety of
mechanisms for monitoring the performance of
Java applications. There are several tools that are
freely available that can be used to monitor Java
applications. This paper describes some of those
tools, and the Java Management Extensions (JMX)
technology on which those tools are built.
Additionally, the paper shows how custom tools
can be built using JMX.

Minor Garbage Collection
Occurs when no room in eden for new object
Marks all reachable objects in eden and “from” survivor space
Copies those objects to “to” survivor space
Updates references accordingly
If “to” survivor space fills, overflows to old generation
Resets allocation pointer to start of eden

Interpreting Graphed GC Data
Typical GC data graph
For many GCs, the heap slowly
fills as objects get moved to the
old generation
• Blue (size before GC) or
magenta (size after GC) lines
with positive slope
Then a full GC happens
• Drop in blue (or magenta) lines
• Yellow (GC time) dot in higher
position

Parallel and Concurrent Collectors
Parallel collector – young generation only
-XX:+UseParallelGC
-XX:ParallelGCThreads=number
By default, number of threads = number of CPUs
JVM 5.0 – on by default if >= 2CPUs and >= 1GB RAM
Concurrent Mark Sweep collector – tenured gen only
-XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC
-XX:+UseParNewGC (parallel young gen collector)
Concurrent collection runs in phases
Some phases stop the application threads
Some phases run concurrently with application
threads

Running the JConsole
Two steps:
1: Start Java application with these options:
Required, only option
needed to monitor
local application
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=<port>
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false
Use all four options to monitor
a remote application. Note that
an unsecure connection is used.
You can also monitor using a secure connection

2: Start JConsole and connect to the JVM
Started JBoss with all four options,
with port 9999. Can connect using
either method.
Can supply connection options
on JConsole command line.

Conclusions
You should now know how to
Use JConsole to monitor a variety of JVM data
Use JStat to monitor JVM heap and class statistics
Use JMX (via key MBeans) to monitor Java applications,
including application servers
