jmx_jvm_heap_committed


Prometheus ID	jmx_jvm_heap_committed
Legacy ID	jvm.heap.committed
Metric Type	counter
Unit	number
Description	The amount of memory that is currently allocated to the JVM for heap memory. Heap memory is the storage area for Java objects. The JVM may release memory to the system and Heap Committed could decrease below Heap Init; but Heap Committed can never increase above Heap Max.
Additional Notes	By default, this metric shows the average value for the selected scope. For instance, if you apply it to a group of machines, you will see the average value for the whole group. However, you can easily segment the metric to see it by host, process, container, and so on. Just use ‘Segment by’ in the UI.

jmx_jvm_heap_init


Prometheus ID	jmx_jvm_heap_init
Legacy ID	jvm.heap.init
Metric Type	counter
Unit	number
Description	The initial amount of memory that the JVM requests from the operating system for heap memory during startup (defined by the –Xms option). The JVM may request additional memory from the operating system and may also release memory to the system over time. The value of Heap Init may be undefined.
Additional Notes	By default, this metric shows the average value for the selected scope. For instance, if you apply it to a group of machines, you will see the average value for the whole group. However, you can easily segment the metric to see it by host, process, container, and so on. Just use ‘Segment by’ in the UI.

jmx_jvm_heap_max


Prometheus ID	jmx_jvm_heap_max
Legacy ID	jvm.heap.max
Metric Type	counter
Unit	number
Description	The maximum size allocation of heap memory for the JVM (defined by the –Xmx option). Any memory allocation attempt that would exceed this limit will cause an OutOfMemoryError exception to be thrown.
Additional Notes	By default, this metric shows the average value for the selected scope. For instance, if you apply it to a group of machines, you will see the average value for the whole group. However, you can easily segment the metric to see it by host, process, container, and so on. Just use ‘Segment by’ in the UI.

jmx_jvm_heap_used


Prometheus ID	jmx_jvm_heap_used
Legacy ID	jvm.heap.used
Metric Type	counter
Unit	number
Description	The amount of allocated heap memory (ie Heap Committed) currently in use. Heap memory is the storage area for Java objects. An object in the heap that is referenced by another object is ’live’, and will remain in the heap as long as it continues to be referenced. Objects that are no longer referenced are garbage and will be cleared out of the heap to reclaim space.
Additional Notes	By default, this metric shows the average value for the selected scope. For instance, if you apply it to a group of machines, you will see the average value for the whole group. However, you can easily segment the metric to see it by host, process, container, and so on. Just use ‘Segment by’ in the UI.

jmx_jvm_heap_used_percent


Prometheus ID	jmx_jvm_heap_used_percent
Legacy ID	jvm.heap.used.percent
Metric Type	gauge
Unit	percent
Description	The ratio between Heap Used and Heap Committed.
Additional Notes	By default, this metric shows the average value for the selected scope. For instance, if you apply it to a group of machines, you will see the average value for the whole group. However, you can easily segment the metric to see it by host, process, container, and so on. Just use ‘Segment by’ in the UI.

jmx_jvm_nonHeap_committed


Prometheus ID	jmx_jvm_nonHeap_committed
Legacy ID	jvm.nonHeap.committed
Metric Type	counter
Unit	number
Description	The amount of memory that is currently allocated to the JVM for non-heap memory. Non-heap memory is used by Java to store loaded classes and other meta-data. The JVM may release memory to the system and Non-Heap Committed could decrease below Non-Heap Init; but Non-Heap Committed can never increase above Non-Heap Max.
Additional Notes	By default, this metric shows the average value for the selected scope. For instance, if you apply it to a group of machines, you will see the average value for the whole group. However, you can easily segment the metric to see it by host, process, container, and so on. Just use ‘Segment by’ in the UI.
