DESCRIPTION

The jconsole command starts a graphical console tool that lets you monitor and manage Java applications and virtual machines on a local or remote machine.

On Windows, the jconsole command doesn't associate with a console window. It does, however, display a dialog box with error information when the jconsole command fails.
