                 Key: JBAS-6311
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBAS-6311
             Project: JBoss Application Server
          Issue Type: Feature Request
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
          Components: Clustering, Other

We could really do with a service within AS that automatically generates 
local/remote thread dumps under certain circumstances:

- When a JBC TimeoutException is received or a sync cluster wide RPC 
sync call times out. request the node that didn't respond to dump a thread 
dump. It could happen that the node wouldn't respond to such request either.

- Maybe if a deadlock was detected locally? Not sure how a service could 
be notified of such deadlock, maybe it'd require to poll find deadlocks periodically.

Remote thread dumps would have to over JMX or similar but local thread 
dumps could either be done via JMX or natively. Some work was done trying 
to to automate generation of thread dumps if servers fail to stop during testsuite:
