dtrace discuss - Mar 2006 - Can dtrace agent of JDK be used in IBM Websphere?(fwd)

------------------forwarded------------------------------------

This is to help my customer to migrate their IBM websphere 6.0.2 to run
on solaris 10 platform.

Customer is eager to use the dtrace agent of JDK
(https://solaris10-dtrace-vm-agents.dev.java.net/ ) to benefit their IBM
websphere server, I am not sure whether we can use this agent in IBM
websphere bundled JDK whose version is JDK (build 1.4.2_05-b04), in
fact, I was trying to use the agent with IBM websphere server bundled
JDK on my machine, but it failed.

So can anybody help me to clarify this situation? if no, please help to
explain, if yes,  please kindly let me know how to achieve it.

Thanks in advance.

Can you reply with more details on what failed? Does websphere use an IBM 
or Sun developed SDK?

Thanks,
