HC 03 How to enable a Java application for live monitoring by the Health Center

This video guide takes you through the necessary steps to enable a Java application for live monitoring by the Health Center.

Health Center is a low-processor and memory usage diagnostic tool for monitoring the status of a running IBM Java Virtual Machine (JVM).

Health Center provides live information and recommendations in each of the following areas: * Classes: information about classes being loaded * Environment: details of the configuration and system of the monitored application * Garbage Collection: information about the Java heap and pause times * Locking: information about contention on inflated locks * Profiling: sampling profile of Java methods including call paths

why on Earth this should be configured at all?!!

visualvm works with any Sun/Apple JDK OUT OF THE BOX!

Why, after installing any product with IBM JDK, should I then install the package?

Very good. Please post more videos like this on Java Performance tuning. I am on a z/Linux virtual server on a z9 and there aren't too many guides on tuning and monitoring
