Creating a customized profiling set

You would create a customized profiling set if you want to collect data other than as specified in the default selection of profiling sets provided on the Overview page. For example, you would do this if you want to collect J2EE performance data and memory-related data at the same time.

In this case, you would create your own profiling set by doing the following steps:

  1. On the overview page, create a new profiling set by clicking Add.
  2. Provide a name and, optionally, a description for the new profiling set. Click OK.
  3. Select the new profiling set and click Edit.
  4. Select profiling types from the check list on the left-hand side of the Edit Profiling Set dialog. Click on a profiling type name to view and modify its settings (see descriptions above for J2EE Performance Analysis type and ARM Performance Analysis type settings).
  5. Click Finish.

Now, when you start profiling, the specified data will be collected. Note that when you customize a profiling set to include Time Analysis types as well as other types, the profiling may involve more than one type of data collection agent. You must start monitoring on all attached agents to collect the data you desire. To start monitoring an agent, select it and click Start Monitoring from it pop-up menu.
