IV34278: THREAD COUNTS IN JAVACORE DO NOT GIVE EXPECTED NUMBER OF THREADS.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Error Message: The number of threads reported in the 1XMPOOLINFO
  section of the javacore.txt file does not match the expected
  value.
  .
  Stack Trace: N/A
  .
  Example text from javacore:
  0SECTION       THREADS subcomponent dump routine
  NULL           =================================
  NULL
  1XMPOOLINFO    Thread pool info:
  2XMPOOLTOTAL       Current total number of threads: 15
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• The number reported was correct but was confusing as it was the
  number of pooled threads in the JVM not the number of live Java
  threads.
  

Problem conclusion

• This defect will be fixed in:
  7.0.0 SR4
  6.0.1 SR5
  .
  The section has been clarified and expanded to give the number
  of pooled, live and daemon threads to make it easier to
  understand.
  Updated example text from javacore:
  0SECTION       THREADS subcomponent dump routine
  NULL           =================================
  NULL
  1XMPOOLINFO    JVM Thread pool info:
  2XMPOOLTOTAL       Current total number of pooled threads: 15
  2XMPOOLLIVE        Current total number of live threads: 4
  2XMPOOLDAEMON      Current total number of live daemon threads:
  3
