Use the out-of-the-box monitoring template in Server & Application Monitor to track vital memory statistics, including memory heap, memory non-heap, memory pool (int, peak, commited, used), memory pending, free memory, total memory, garbage collection, and more.

Identify issues with multi-threading by monitoring current and active thread metrics, thread CPU time, user time, and available processors. Also monitor classes loaded and unloaded count to know what classes are running on your Java Virtual Machine.

Monitor server health and capacity

JBoss application server performance monitoring in Server & Application Monitor helps you solve server issues impacting the performance of JBoss.

  • Monitor server availability and other important performance metrics such as response time, packet loss, and latency
  • Track server hardware utilization for CPU, memory, and disk, and forecast when you will run out of capacity
  • Monitor hardware components such as fan, temperature, and power supply, and identify failures
  • Get visibility of server processes and services in real-time, and start/stop/restart them remotely for troubleshooting

  • What is JBoss Application Server?

    JBoss Application Server is an open-source platform designed for implementing Java applications and services. This means JBoss Application Server can recognize and use elements of Java to build and deploy them appropriately. You can also use it to scale Java servers so they fit your business requirements.

    JBoss Application Server is developed by Red Hat and is built to integrate well with other tools and platforms. End users can run it on Linux, Unix, Windows, or macOS, and the platform is designed to be compliant with the specifications of Java Enterprise Edition 7.

    As an open-source tool, JBoss Application Server demands a fair amount of maintenance and manual interference. It does come with access to a support team of professional developers, who can assist with technical difficulties. To ensure optimal performance, it’s best to use an automated JBoss performance monitoring tool. Many JBoss monitoring tools are built to help you detect, understand, and troubleshoot issues present throughout the environment.

  • What are common JBoss performance issues?

    There are many common performance issues one can encounter when utilizing JBoss servers. For instance, improper or excessive logging can result in performance problems. Introducing incorrect logging levels in the production environment can be especially damaging to performance.

    Common performance issues also stem from a lack of application and web caching while using JBoss infrastructures. When there’s too much data in your cache, critical Java functions can take much longer to complete or even come to a complete halt.

    Similarly, it’s important to enact proper garbage collection (GC). When the GC processes consume excessive resources, your Java platforms and any related services may slow down. This is why it’s important to tune the GC collection times and minimum and maximum values of your heap size values in the Java command line options.

    Many common performance issues stem from a lack of resources. When there isn’t enough memory, CPU, etc. in your JBoss server, it can’t properly support critical Java functions. As a result, these functions begin to falter, and network runtime significantly decreases.

    If you aren’t effectively monitoring JBoss performance metrics, these performance issues may go undetected for long periods of time and greatly decrease overall network performance. Choosing the right JBoss performance monitoring tool is a critical first step toward discovering and effectively resolving common performance issues. The best monitoring tools will enable you to monitor your entire infrastructure quickly, accurately, and without requiring excessive resources or funds.

  • How to monitor JBoss Application Server with SAM

    You can monitor JBoss application server with SolarWinds® Server & Application Monitor (SAM) by using the SAM application monitor template for Java Management Extension (JMX) polling. This out-of-the-box monitoring template is designed to leverage the JMX protocol to track changes and monitor JBoss server statistics.

    The SAM JMX monitoring template enables you to watch over various components via component monitors. These component monitors are designed to gather the following vital statistics in real time:

    • Classes loaded and unloaded
    • Amount of used and committed memory
    • Minimum, maximum, and initial size of memory
    • Memory pool and memory pool peak statistics
    • Number of objects pending finalization
    • Number of available processors
    • Free memory and total memory of JBoss server
    • Accumulated GC and collection time in milliseconds
    • Threads started, active thread counts and group counts, and total thread CPU
    • Runtime, uptime, and compiler time in milliseconds

    You can customize threshold limits for these monitoring statistics as needed and enable alerts to tell you when critical thresholds are crossed. You can also create dashboards on SAM to give you proper visibility into essential JBoss monitoring statistics.

    To enact JBoss monitoring via the JMX monitoring template from SAM, you must configure it to be used with an Orion® Platform agent for Linux or SNMP agentless. You must also configure any Java application servers or JVMs for SAM monitoring. Learn more about configuring JBoss Application Server for SAM monitoring.
