Issue/Introduction

How enable “ActiveThreadCount” for Weblogic monitoring.
 

How can I collect “ActiveThreadCount” by enabling Weblogic JMX monitoring?

 

Resolution

There are two ways to make active this metric:

1) Set the full version of the PBL to display metrics in the agent Threads node.
Specify the name of the PBL file in this property: introscope.autoprobe.directivesFile.

For example, to use the full version of the standard PBL for WebLogic server, set the property to: introscope.autoprobe.directivesFile=weblogic-full.pbl
Then, the user can see metrics such as Active Threads counts and thread groups under AgentName | Threads.

Save and close IntroscopeAgent.profile.


2) Inside "toggles-typical.pbd" or the file that you are using, uncomment the following:
#######################
# Threads Configuration
# ================

# TurnOn: ThreadTracing


After Change

#######################
# Threads Configuration
# ================

TurnOn: ThreadTracing


Then restart the desired JVM for the changes to take effect.
