Configuring the DTrace Event Script

Java Mission Control uses it's own DTrace Event Script language to configure the DTrace probes, and comes with a default configuration in the default.de file. The DTrace Event Script (.de) will be compiled into a DTrace script (.d).

In the DTrace Recording wizard, you can select which .de script to use if you want to make custom changes. For more information about how to customize the .de file, see Editing DTrace Event Scripts.

These are the operations you can do with the event script:

• Browse - Browse to select a DTrace Event Script file

• Update - Update model with any changes that has occurred in your selected script file

• View - View the DTrace Event Script file

• Default - Use the default script (will discard any changes you have made to the default.de file in your workspace)
