Profiling with JMX
Enabling the profiler
JMX is Sun's native java platform monitor . JConsole can be used to visualize the profiling data.
To enable JMX add -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote (or -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=<portNum> for remote monitoring) as a command line argument when starting bamboo.
For Unix : add the parameter to the RUN_CMD line in bamboo.sh
For Windows : add the parameter to the .\conf\wrapper.conf file as wrapper.java.additional.4=-D....
Restart Bamboo.
Does not work when bamboo is run as a windows service
At the moment profiling via JMX only works when bamboo is run as a console application on windows.
Running bamboo as a windows service with profiling is currently not supported.
Monitoring and Controlling the Profiler with JConsole
Please refer to Sun's documentation
Profiling with Yourkit
Installing Yourkit
Yourkit is an alternative (commercial) java profiler.
Follow the installation instructions for your platform.
You do not need a license if you just run the profiling agent with bamboo.
Enabling the profiler
Add -agentlib:yjpagent=onexit=snapshot to the command line in bamboo.sh or as an additional parameter to wrapper.conf
Then follow the instructions on enabling the profiler manually for your platform.
Restart Bamboo.
