Sun GlassFish Enterprise Server 2.1 Performance Tuning Guide

Thread Pool Settings

You can both monitor and tune thread pool settings through the Admin Console. To configure monitoring with the Admin Console, open the page Configurations > config-name > Monitoring. To view monitoring information with the Admin Console, open the page Stand-Alone Instances > instance-name (Monitor).

Tuning Thread Pools (Unix /Linux only)

Configure thread pool settings through the Admin Console at Configurations > config-name > Thread Pools.

Since threads on Unix/Linux are always operating system (OS)-scheduled, as opposed to user-scheduled, Unix/Linux users do not need to use native thread pools. Therefore, this option is not offered in a Unix/Linux user interface. However, it is possible to edit the OS-scheduled thread pools and add new thread pools, if needed, using the Admin Console.
