Dear Wiki user, You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Tomcat Wiki" for change notification.
The "FAQ/Monitoring" page has been changed by ChristopherSchultz: http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/FAQ/Monitoring New page: Monitoring of a running Tomcat instance can be done in several ways, but observing a Tomcat instance via JMX beans will give you the best information available through standard interfaces (i.e. JMX). You can find information about [http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/monitoring.html|connecting to Tomcat via JMX] in the Tomcat Users' Guide. Rather than repeating that information here (which is mostly about configuration, connection, etc.), please go read the official documentation. This page is intended to be a community-curated collection of useful JMX beans that may be useful to you ''after'' you have made your JMX connection and want to observe interesting data through Tomcat's (and other) JMX beans. == JVM Memory Information == You will certainly want to inspect your JVM's memory usage. Here are some JMX beans and attributes that can be used to do so. JMX Bean: java.lang:type=Memory Attribute: HeapMemoryUsage The attribute value is a javax.management.openmbean.CompositeData which contains 4 keys: committed, init, max, and used. The 'used' key is probably the most useful (or a combination of 'used' / 'max' to get a memory-usage metric as a ratio). JMX Bean: java.lang:type=MemoryPool,name=CMS Perm Gen Attribute: Usage Similar to the HeapMemoryUsage MXBean described above, this one will give you information about the "PermGen" heap generation. Depending upon your garbage collection and other memory settings, you might have different MXBeans under java.lang:type=MemoryPool with different names. You should inspect each one to determine if they would be useful for you to inspect. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
