Use the -l | -- legacy option to generate text output in the previous format.The threaddump command uses JMX, which requires authentication. You must provide user credentials with the threaddump command to obtain the needed information. In addition, the provided user name must have the My webMethods Server Connect to MWS JMX functional privilege, mws.privilege.jmx.connect.The threaddump command saves the information in the diagnostics.log file located in the Software AG_directory /MWS/tools/diagnostics/config/ directory.The threaddump command produces the result using the log4j mechanism. For more information, see
Log4j. The log file is located in the directory from which the tool was started. If you run the tool repeatedly, the logging utility appends the new information to the existing log file from the previous run.Windows example:UNIX example:
