Diagnostics - Threads

The Threads page displays a snapshot of information about Gateway’s execution threads. This information may be important when troubleshooting certain types of issues. If you are working with Support, you may be asked for a thread dump.

Their state and CPU usages are displayed to easily find problem threads, as well as a chart of what systems are using the threads and the ability to filter the threads based on a keyword. Each thread can be expanded to give details on what it is currently doing, and that individual thread process can be copied to the clipboard.

Diagnostics - Threads Section

Thread Performance by System

The upper section of the Diagnostics - Threads page depicts graphical representation of the current threads including percentage of total CPU used, overall scope, and average CPU usage per system.

  • Click the Expand expand icon icon to see the display.
  • Click the Reset reset icon icon to reset the information.

Individual Threads

The lower portion of the Diagnostics - Threads page displays statistics for individual threads.

To download a thread dump, click the Download download icon icon on the right of the page. In order to be useful, a thread dump must be taken at the time the issue is observed. Unlike logs, which maintain a record of past messages, a thread dump is a time-specific snapshot and will not contain a record of past states. To see more information on thread dumps, including other methods of obtaining them such as system functions or the command line, click here.
