Is it possible to find the creation time of a thread using thread dump?

I use jmap -dump:format=b,file=<file.dump> <PID> command to generate thread dump of a JVM instance. I just want to know if it's possible to find the time of creation of a thread running in the JVM instance, using the thread dump generated.

This is a heap dump, not a thread dump. There is no info about thread creation time in a heap dump. However, you can find it from a thread dump as described below.

1. Dump threads using jstack <PID>

2. Find nid of the thread you are interested in:

   "Thread-7" #30 daemon prio=5 os_prio=0 tid=0x00002aaac9688800 nid=0x6945 runnable [0x00000000429c5000]
                                                                     ^^^^^^
      java.lang.Thread.State: RUNNABLE
           at sun.nio.ch.EPoll.epollWait(Native Method)
           at sun.nio.ch.EPollPort$EventHandlerTask.poll(EPollPort.java:194)
           at sun.nio.ch.EPollPort$EventHandlerTask.run(EPollPort.java:268)
           at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:745)
   

3. Convert it to decimal: TID = 0x6945 = 26949

4. Get the start time using ps -Lo tid,lstart <PID> | grep <TID>
