Java Virtual Machines (JVM)

The fields in the JVM data model describe generic Java server platforms.

Note: A dataset is a component of a data model. In versions of the Splunk platform prior to version 6.5.0, these were referred to as data model objects.

Tags used with JVM event datasets

The following tags act as constraints to identify your events as being relevant to this data model. For more information, see How to use these reference tables.

Dataset name	Tag name
JVM	jvm
|____ Threading	threading
|____ Runtime	runtime
|____ OS	os
|____ Compilation	compilation
|____ Classloading	classloading
|____ Memory	memory

Fields for JVM event datasets

The following table lists the extracted and calculated fields for the event datasets in the model. Note that it does not include any inherited fields. For more information, see How to use these reference tables.

The key for using the column titled "Notes" or "Abbreviated list of example values" is as follows:

• Recommended: Add-on developers make their best effort attempts to map these event fields. If these fields are not populated, then the event is not very useful.
• Required: Add-on developers must map these event fields when using the pytest-splunk-addon to test for CIM compatibility. See pytest-splunk-addon documentation.
• Prescribed values: Permitted values that can populate the fields, which Splunk is using for a particular purpose. Other valid values exist, but Splunk is not relying on them.
• Other values: Other example values that you might see.

Dataset name	Field name	Data type	Description	Abbreviated list of example values
JVM	jvm_description	string	A description field provided in some data sources.
JVM	tag	string	This automatically generated field is used to access tags from within datamodels. Add-on builders do not need to populate it.
Threading	cm_enabled	boolean	Indicates whether thread contention monitoring is enabled.	prescribed values: true, false, 1, 0
Threading	cm_supported	boolean	Indicates whether the JVM supports thread contention monitoring.	prescribed values: true, false, 1, 0
Threading	cpu_time_enabled	boolean	Indicates whether thread CPU time measurement is enabled.	prescribed values: true, false, 1, 0
Threading	cpu_time_supported	boolean	Indicates whether the Java virtual machine supports CPU time measurement for the current thread.	prescribed values: true, false, 1, 0
Threading	current_cpu_time	number	CPU-space time taken by the JVM, in seconds.

Threading	omu_supported	boolean	Indicates whether the JVM supports monitoring of object monitor usage.	prescribed values: true, false, 1, 0
Threading	peak_thread_count	number	The JVM's peak thread count.
Threading	synch_supported	boolean	Indicates whether the JVM supports monitoring of ownable synchronizer usage.	prescribed values: true, false, 1, 0
