Hello! We are running tomcat6 - Apache Servlet/JSP Engine, RI for Servlet 2.5/JSP 2.1 API 6.0.18-20.3.1 on Suse Linux Enterprise 11 JVM is java-1_6_0-ibm - Java(TM) 6 Runtime Environment 1.6.0_sr7.0-1.6.21 cpu is a quad core cpu with ht (xeon 5500)
The problem is that directly after startup, the java process blocks 1 core to 100% (seen by 'top'). There are no additional webapps deployed, not even the manager application. I'm using apache2 2.2.10-2.24.5 with mod_proxy and mod_proxy_ajp, not sure if I'm also using APR. Connected by eclipse I discovered the following: when I suspend thread by thread, the load dropped when I suspend * "Daemon Thread [Attach handler] (Suspended)".* ... [Remote Java Application] IBM J9 VM[localhost:19999] Thread [main] (Suspended) Daemon Thread [Signal Dispatcher] (Suspended) * Daemon Thread [Attach handler] (Suspended) * AttachHandler. setlastException(Exception) line: 449 AttachHandler.run() line: 165 Daemon Thread [ContainerBackgroundProcessor[StandardEngine[Catalina]]] (Suspended) Daemon Thread [TP-Processor1] (Suspended) Daemon Thread [TP-Processor2] (Suspended) Daemon Thread [TP-Processor3] (Suspended) Daemon Thread [TP-Processor4] (Suspended) Daemon Thread [TP-Monitor] (Suspended) Daemon Thread [TP-Processor1] (Suspended) Daemon Thread [TP-Processor2] (Suspended) Daemon Thread [TP-Processor3] (Suspended) Daemon Thread [TP-Processor4] (Suspended) Daemon Thread [TP-Monitor] (Suspended) The in the context of that thread I discovered that there occured an exception: Context @AttachHandler.setlastException(Exception) line: 449 this AttachHandler (id=1972) lastException IOException (id=1803) cause IOException (id=1803) cause IOException (id=1803) detailMessage "wait error on semaphore _notifier status = -151" (id=1870) stackTrace null walkback (id=1876) detailMessage "wait error on semaphore _notifier status = -151" (id=1870) stackTrace null walkback (id=1876) What can I do?
