Java Thread Dump

                                           Java Thread Dump
What is Thread Dump: A Java thread dump is a way of finding out what every thread in the JVM is doing at a particular point in time. This is especially useful if your Java application sometimes seems to hang when running under load, as an analysis of the dump will show where the threads are stuck.

          A thread dump is a snapshot of the state of all threads that are part of the process. The state of each thread is presented with a so called stack trace, which shows the contents of a thread's stack. Some of the threads belong to the Java application you are running, while others are JVM internal threads. In the production applications, this thread dump is very useful to analyze the stuck thread problems and application not working.

Will update with more info....
