If Icinga 2 is still running, generate a full backtrace from the running
process and store it into a new file (e.g. for debugging dead locks):
# gdb -p $(pidof icinga2) -batch -ex "thread apply all bt full" -ex "detach" -ex "q" > gdb_bt.log
Icinga 2 runs with 2 processes, therefore generate two backtrace logs
and add them to the GitHub issue.
```
for pid in $(pidof icinga2); do gdb -p $pid -batch -ex "thread apply all bt full" -ex "detach" -ex "q" > gdb_bt_${pid}_`date +%s`.log; done
```
### GDB Thread List from Running Process <a id="development-debug-gdb-thread-list-running"></a>
Instead of a full backtrace, you sometimes just need a list of running threads.
```
for pid in $(pidof icinga2); do gdb -p $pid -batch -ex "info threads" -ex "detach" -ex "q" > gdb_threads_${pid}_`date +%s`.log; done
```
