You should also check your STAX JVM log to see if there are any errors 
logged there.

Please see section "15.8 Debugging hung STAX jobs" in the STAF Diagnostics 
Guide at http://staf.sourceforge.net/current/STAFDiag.htm.  It talks about 
how you can debug hung STAX jobs by using STAX service requests to 
list/query information about the job to determine where and why it is 
blocked.  For example, if the job ID of a "blocked" job is 5, do the 
following on the STAX service machine:

  STAF local STAX LIST JOB 5 THREADS

Then query each thread id in the list returned by the above command to 
determine which thread is blocked and which element in your STAX xml file 
is blocked.  This command provides a thread stack that provides the exact 
line # of the blocked element and a condition stack.  That information can 
help determine why the job is blocked:

  STAF local STAX QUERY JOB 5 THREAD <ThreadID>

Note that one common cause is if the thread stack shows that a <process> 
never completed, and thus is blocking the STAX job from completing.  If 
the process actually has completed, then the problem could be because when 
the remote machine where the process was running tried to send a process 
completion message to the STAX service machine, it failed to find the STAX 
service machine possibly due to a TCP/IP DNS configuration problem.

Re: [staf-users] How to get all job and terminate them?






Hi, all
 
 
For unknown issues, there are some blocked jobs for the STAX execution, my 
question is How to get all job and terminate them? and which reason can 
result in the block jobs?
 
 
can anyone give us some clue?
 
thanks in advance.

Profiling of STAX Job means to gather following information about STAX Job 
execution:
 
1.      Memory / CPU usage by services / methods written in STAX Job
2.      Checking the memory leak during STAX Job execution
3.      Checking the dead lock condition during STAX Job execution
4.      Time taken by STAF services used in STAX Job and method written in 
STAX Job for completing the request
 
 
Hope, now you got the purpose of profiling of STAX Job.

Can you clarify exactly what you mean by "profiling" STAX job execution? 
 If you mean analyzing memory usage, performance, etc., there is no 
software provided with STAF/STAX to do that.  However, STAX is written in 
Java, so you could use Java profiling tools to do the analysis. 

The following Help forum thread has some more information:

How we can profile the STAX Job execution? Is there any software available
for profiling STAX Job execution?
