1.Execute "Docker ps", will give the container Id of all services and collect the container id foe TSC.
2.Execute "docker exec -it CONTAINER_ID bash" (replace CONTAINER_ID with TSC Container id)
3.Bash will come and then execute the "jps" on bash, that will give you the PID for process(it will be 1 for jar)
4.Execute the "jstack PID > threadDump.tdump"(replace PID with process id received in step 3, it should be 1)
5.Execute the "jmap -dump:format=b,file=heapDump.hprof PID"(replace PID with process id received in step 3, it should be 1)
6.Then we have to exit the bash using "exit" command
7.Execute "sudo docker cp CONTAINER_ID:heapDump.hprof ." from ec2 command line, that will copy the dump file on ec2 machine present working directory.
8.Execute "sudo docker cp CONTAINER_ID:threadDump.tdump ." from ec2 command line, that will copy the dump file on ec2 machine present working directory.
