Cross-platform dump viewer
The cross-system dump viewer uses the dump files that the operating system generates to resolve data relevant to the JVM.
This tool is provided in two parts:
- jextract - platform-specific utility to extract and package (compress) data from the dump generated by the native operating system. This part of the process is required only for system dumps that have been generated from earlier versions of the JVM.
- jdmpview - a cross-platform Java™ tool to view that data
The dump viewer "understands" the JVM and can be used to analyze its internals. It is a useful tool to debug unexpected terminations of the JVM. The tool is provided only in the IBM SDK for Java. Because the dump viewer is cross-platform, you can analyze a dump from any system, and without knowledge of the system debugger.
For more information, see Using system dumps and the dump viewer.
