Adobe ColdFusion 8

Snapshots

The Snapshots report lists all snapshots that are triggered. Snapshots include details about the ColdFusion server at the moment the snapshot is triggered. These details include:

  • The time and reason the snapshot was triggered
  • Whether profiling and memory tracking are enabled
  • How many running and queued requests exist at the moment of the snapshot
  • Information about memory usage, including:
    • JVM memory usage
    • Server, application, and session scope memory usage
    • Throttle-queue size and memory usage
  • Information about cached queries
  • Status of the database pool
  • The Java stack trace

Snapshots are triggered when one of the following occurs:

  • You click Trigger Snapshot on the User Snapshots page of the Server Monitor
  • The threshold for either an unresponsive server or a slow server is exceeded

When you click Trigger Snapshot, the Server Monitor collects the information for the snapshot and saves it in a file named snapshot_usrgen_timestamp.txt in the cf_root/logs/snapshots folder. When the Server Monitor creates a snapshot, it saves the information in a file named snapshot_sysgen_timestamp.txt in the cf_root/logs/snapshots folder.
