How to run jstat in windows?

Question

I am trying to run jstat for monitoring GC. I get the vmid using jps command:

> jps
18928 GCTest

but when i try to run jstat like this:

>jstat -gc <vmid> 18928
The system cannot find the file specified.

I get the message The system cannot find the file specified. . The syntax seems fine. Am i making any errors?

yes it is , i am able to execute jstat command, but when i try to execute with the argument it is showing me the message — Techno, Mar 23 '15 at 16:27

but why i couldn't use option? – Techno Mar 23 '15 at 17:51
AFAIK is either the name of the JVM or the id (which you got using the jps command). So you don't have to put it in the command line. – Ria Mar 23 '15 at 18:01
is the syntax for the parameter placeholder, so you are using it – Chris DaMour Jul 22 '19 at 16:55
