The WebSphere Application Server modules for the IBM® Monitoring and Diagnostic Tools for Java™ - Dump Analyzer extend the functions provided by the base Dump Analyzer tool, by providing several new analysis modules that examine WebSphere-related data structures within a system dump from a WebSphere JVM. Various modules are provided for basic health-check and general status information, as well as several "drill-downs" into specific functional areas of WebSphere Application Server. In addition, a special module provides an interactive shell using the Jython scripting language, similar to the WebSphere "wsadmin" tool, that allows a user to interactively examine data structures in the dump when no specific pre-defined analysis module is available.
All the new modules provided by this add-on appear in the main menu of analysis modules provided by the IBM® Monitoring and Diagnostic Tools for Java™ - Dump Analyzer tool, under the categories "WebSphere Application Server" and "Interactive Shells".
The modules in this tool can analyze dumps from WebSphere Application Server on any platform that uses the IBM® implementation of the Virtual Machine for Java™.
