Author monitoring connection pooling in WAS 4 (third party implementation)

We have a software (kind of a portal) that runs on top of WebSphere
4.0.5 and it has its own connection pooling class. Unfortunately, it
does not provide any way to monitor it. Is there someway in
WebSphere/Java that I could monitor the connection pooling being done?

You'd have to put it into your connection pooler.

You can use external process monitoring scripts that can capture some
information for you.

For example, assuming that your repository DB is differnt than your
Application DB, you can use "lsof" on Unix or "netstat -n " and filter on
your DB server IP:Port and you can see the # of conneections going out of
the process. By watching the port#s carefully, you can see if the
connections are being opened/closed.

other than that, you cannot do much, because it your own connection pool.
Like Ken said, it has to be "instrumented" into the code, to capture any
stats/support information out of it.
