[jbossts-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBTM-2440) Disable byteman tests when running with the IBM JVM

[Michael Musgrove (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBTM-2440?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13083829#comment-13083829 ] 

Michael Musgrove commented on JBTM-2440:
----------------------------------------

I do recall - we disable the tests because byteman is known not to work with the IBM J9 compiler. So the fix is just to go back to not running the tests on J9 and figure out how to make byteman work with J9 as an optional task.

> Byteman instrumentation does not work with the IBM J9 JVM:- it fails with errors like the following:
> {code}
> *** java.lang.instrument ASSERTION FAILED ***: "jvmtierror == JVMTI_ERROR_NOT_AVAILABLE" at JPLISAgent.c line: 1009
> Exception in thread "Attachment 59984" Agent failed to start!
> JVMJ9TI064E Agent initialization function Agent_OnAttach failed for library instrument, return code 102
> {code}
> I will implement a workaround by disabling byteman when testing with this JVM.
