dump

Definition

To display a thread dump related to one or multiple instances of the SAP CC system

Command Usage

Syntax

dump [<INST_TARGETS> ...]

Command Arguments
Name Description
<INST_TARGETS> Optional: The target instances of the command; You can specify a list of instance IDs or instance types.

Detailed Information

The dump command retrieves and displays a full dump of the threads relating to one or multiple instances of the SAP CC Core Server system. The dump contains information about each Java thread, including its stack traces.

Use the <INST_TARGETS> argument to specify the instances you want to retrieve the dump from. If you do not specify any argument, the dump will contain information of all threads of your SAP CC Core Server system, for all running instances.

Notes

As of SAP CC 4.1 SP 1 and if the THREAD_DUMP_ENABLED system parameter is set to true, the dump command also triggers the generation of a thread dump file for each specified instance (or for all running instances when no argument is specified).

Each thread dump file is generated:
  • In the output path of each concerned instance, defined using the THREAD_DUMP_OUTPUT_PATH system parameter
  • Using the following naming pattern: <instanceId>_<date>_ondemand.zip, where:
    • instanceId = <instanceType>#<instanceNumber> (e.g. updater#1, dispatcher#1, rater#2, and so on)
    • date corresponds to the system date and uses the following pattern : yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH'h'mm'm'ss's'
