PingAuthorize

jstat

The jstat tool is used to obtain a variety of statistical information from the JVM, much like the vmstat utility, which can be used to obtain CPU utilization information from the operating system. The general manner to invoke it is as follows:

jstat  <type>  <processID>  <interval>

The <interval> option specifies the length of time in milliseconds between lines of output. The <processID> option specifies the process ID of the JVM used to run PingAuthorize Server, which can be obtained by running jps (as mentioned previously). The <type> option specifies the type of output that should be provided. Some of the most useful types include:

-class

Provides information about class loading and unloading.

-compile

Provides information about the activity of the JIT complex.

-printcompilation

Provides information about JIT method compilation.

-gc

Provides information about the activity of the garbage collector.

-gccapacity

Provides information about memory region capacities.
