JBoss AS 7.1: determining current request activity (a la old /status page in 4.2.2)

[taras.tielkes]

Hi,

I'm interested in knowing the current activity in terms of HTTP requests.

In particular:

1) How many requests are currently executing (ideally grouped into "waiting for request to complete" versus "waiting for response to complete")

2) What is the high watermark in terms of concurrently executing requests since startup?

3) If a thread pool is being used to service requests, what is the maximum it will grow to?

4) What's the average processing time?

In JBoss 4.2.2, by default, a "/status" URL exposed basic data on current request activity.

I'm trying to obtain similar data (through JMX or otherwise) from JBoss AS 7.1, but so far not finding much in the official docs.

Is this simply not exposed, or am I looking in the wrong places?

Thanks in advance,

Taras

I might be wrong, but I don't think this information is available in AS7. I'll move this to the JBossWeb forum where someone with more knowledge in this area might be able to help.

Thanks for moving it.

It would be also useful to be able to query the current maximum of the request processing thread pool.

That way, I could monitor a large cluster of different JBoss 7 servers, and see how close each one gets towards the pool maximum, and emit notifications/warnings based on that.

This to me sounds like a very typical operations scenario, and I'm amazed this data seems not to be easily accessible.
