Didn't work. -3 doesn't kill it. I tried for several minutes. Then I tried -6. That killed it, but I didn't get the core. Where do you think it put it? I did this: 'kill -6 2393 2> error' error was empty.

Thanks,
Rick

I do not have console access to the machine, so it has to be done through ssh.

Kill -3 on the head Java process.  This should generate a textual thread
dump to stderr, even on the IBM JVM.  The dump includes a stack trace
for each thread.  That should get you started as to what the busy
threads are doing.

You may have to redirect stderr somewhere useful before doing this,
depending on your current logging settings.
