solaris light weight process

[jasonnorth]

Does anybody know of a way of mapping the light weight process id reported by a tool such as prstat on Solaris on to something more meaningful e.g. is it a session bean thread, tomcat thread, jboss system thread etc.

e.g. prstat output:

PID .... CPU PROCESS/LWPID
24187 12% java/10
24187 0.1% java/21351
etc..

i.e. Is there any way of knowing what the 10 and 21351 refer to?

Thanks!

to find out which LWPID corresponds to which Java thread you can run "kill -QUIT " (in your case is the PID 24187) which will trigger a jvm dump with all thread stacktraces. look for the "nid" (10=0xA) which corresponds to your LWPID to find out which this guy is doing...
