Problem determination for JVMs

Many of the usual sources of CICS diagnostic information contain information that applies to JVMs, including:

In addition to this CICS-supplied information, there are a number of interfaces specific to the JVM that you can use for problem determination. The JVM's own diagnostic tools and interfaces give you more detailed information about what is happening within the JVM than CICS can, because CICS is unaware of many of the activities within a JVM.

The CICS documentation provides more information about some of these diagnostic tools and interfaces, as follows:
Many more diagnostic tools and interfaces are available for the JVM. The IBM® Developer Kit and Runtime Environment, Java 2 Technology Edition, Version 1.4.2 Diagnostics Guide, SC34-6358, which is available to download from www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/jdk/diagnosis/ has information about further facilities that can be used for problem determination for JVMs. You might find the following facilities especially useful:

If you are using enterprise beans, Dealing with CICS enterprise bean problems has more information about issues that apply specifically to them.
