I used this excellent blog post: -
as inspiration, as well as an earlier blog post of mine: -
I downloaded Eclipse Indigo from the Eclipse site here into which I installed the WAS 8.5 Liberty Profile Developer Tools.
I also downloaded the Liberty code directly from here which resulted in: -
wlp-developers-8.5.0.2.jar
and installed it here: -
/Users/hayd/Downloads/wlp
I then referred to this IBM Technote: -
I then referred to this IBM Technote: -
Setting generic JVM arguments in the WebSphere Application Server V8.5 Liberty profile
which directs one to create a jvm.options file, containing the line: -

-verbose:gc
There are two options for the location of this file - from the Technote: -
There are two options for the location of this file - from the Technote: -
Depending on your preferences, you might configure a single JVM or all Liberty JVMs with your options file.
To apply these settings to a single server, save jvm.options at:
${server.config.dir}/jvm.options
${server.config.dir}/jvm.options
To apply these changes to all Liberty JVMs, save jvm.options at:
${wlp.install.dir}/etc/jvm.options
This will take effect for all JVMs that do not have a locally defined jvm.options file.
${wlp.install.dir}/etc/jvm.options
This will take effect for all JVMs that do not have a locally defined jvm.options file.
I found that, for the second of these - {wlp.install.dir}/etc/ - I had to manually create the etc subdirectory here: -
/Users/hayd/Downloads/wlp/etc
Once I restarted my JVM: -
$ /Users/hayd/Downloads/wlp/bin/server stop MyInstance
$ /Users/hayd/Downloads/wlp/bin/server start MyInstance
I could see the Verbose GC data being logged: -

I also tested placing the jvm.options file into the server.config.dir location instead: -
/Users/hayd/Downloads/wlp/usr/servers/MyInstance
and saw the same effect - verbose GC was enabled when I started the server.
Finally, this IBM Technote: -

Hi, this line draw me to your post: "[ERROR ] SRVE0164E: Web Application Pickle uses the context root /Pickle/*, which is already in use by Web Application Pickle. Web Application Pickle will not be loaded."
I'm getting the same error when trying to deploy my web application in Websphere Liberty. Would you know what is causing it and how to solve the error?
@Moises
You'd typically see that exception if you had two Web Applications (WAR files) using the same context root.
For example, if you had TWO .WAR files in the dropins folder: -
~/wlp/usr/servers/defaultServer/dropins/
both of which had the same context root of Pickle, then you'd see that exception.
Cheers, Dave
Dave: I've already checked that, there is a single web app being deployed. Same as in your log, the new and already deployed conflicting applications are in fact the same. No wonder they have the same root. Somehow Websphere seems to be trying to deploy the app twice. Keep swimming.
@Moises
Check your server.xml as per this example: -
/Users/hayd/wlp/usr/servers/defaultServer/server.xml
for lines such as this: -
...
application id="Liberty1" location="Liberty1.war" name="Liberty1" type="war"/
...
Cheers, Dave
