NAME
       monitoring - reviewing the runtime state of components and services
       deployed in GlassFish Server

DESCRIPTION
       Monitoring is the process of reviewing the statistics of a system to
       improve performance or solve problems. By monitoring the state of
       various components and services deployed in GlassFish Server,
       performance bottlenecks can be identified, failures can be anticipated,
       and runtime standards can be established and observed. Data gathered by
       monitoring can also be useful in performance tuning and capacity
       planning.

       The GlassFish Server monitoring service is enabled by default, that is,
       the monitoring-enabled attribute of the monitoring-service element is
       set to true. Once the monitoring service is enabled, a deployed module
       can then be enabled for monitoring by setting its monitoring level to
       HIGH or LOW (default is OFF). Monitoring can be configured dynamically
       by using the Administration Console or the enable-monitoring and the
       disable-monitoring subcommands. The set subcommand can also be used
       with dotted names to enable or disable monitoring. However, a server
       restart is required for changes made by using the set subcommand to
       take affect.

       Monitoring data can be viewed by using the Administration Console or by
       using the subcommands of the asadmin utility.

       *   The monitor subcommand displays monitoring data for a given type,
           similar to the UNIX top command. The data is presented at given
           intervals.

       *   The list and get subcommands display comprehensive data. Both use
           dotted names to specify monitorable objects.

       Alternate tools for monitoring GlassFish Server components and services
       include JConsole and the REST interface.

       The Monitoring Scripting Client or DTrace Monitoring can be used to
       start the available monitoring probes. Using these tools is helpful in
       identifying performance issues during runtime. Monitoring Scripting
       Client or DTrace Monitoring are only usable if their modules are
       present.
