Monitoring the System

Monitoring is another helpful tool. It is the process of reviewing the statistics of a system to improve performance or solve problems. By monitoring the state of various components and services deployed in Enterprise Server, you can identify performance bottlenecks, predict failures, perform root cause analysis, and ensure that everything is functioning as expected. For more information about monitoring, see Chapter 10, Monitoring the Enterprise Server, in Sun GlassFish Enterprise Server v3 Prelude Administration Guide.
