Re: [tptp-monitoring-tools-dev] Problem with agents

[Harm Sluiman <sluiman@xxxxxxxxxx>]

So your base scenario is that you are
starting and stopping Tomcat yourself, and you want to attach to it and
collect some profiling data. ARM and other information is not in the core
scenario. I looked at the referenced document which is IBM internal and
it is purely about using ARM in that environment and not a general case.

I also understand that you have an agent
controller on the machine that you are running Tomcat on. You seem to have
this part set up since to can connect to it and just don't see the agents.

To make tomcat load the profiling agent
libraries you need. Do this by following the instructions on this page.
http://www.eclipse.org/tptp/home/downloads/installguide/agentcontroller_44/windows/getting_started.html
in the section titled "Using
the Java Profiler with Java 1.5"
This will make the profiling agent you
configure show up when you try to attach.

Let's see if you can get this far ;-)


Thanks for your time.

Hi, thank you for your response

I am using tptp 4.4.0.3, the newest version on the web site. I have tried
4.3 as well with the same results. i have no installed WTP into tptp, and
i do not know what is managing out server as i did not write the server,
i am only trying to profile it for performance numbers. changes i did make
to the web server are documented in the link that i sent to you.

i believe that i intend to use the ARM tools not just profiling. I need
to get execution time analysis or some other way of recording the length
of transactions/functions run. Getting cpu utilization and other statistics
would be helpful as well. I'm not attatched to any one specific way of
accomplishing this, but i have gotten the "attach an agent" process
to work in the past

thank you
