Normally attachments get stripped by the mailing list. I suspect that 
the reason I received them is because we're both on Yahoo.

Your server.xml is not using Executors, and the Probe screen shot shows 
the normal HTTP and AJP connector pools as expected.

If you uncomment the Executor element in server.xml and use it in one or 
more connectors, you'll see the Executor thread pool in Probe. The name 
will be the name that you gave it in server.xml

Min Spare Threads shows up as it is configured in server.xml. Max Spare 
Threads appears to follow largestPoolSize (according to VisualVM). This 
appears to be a Probe issue.

If you mix and match (for example, using Executors for HTTP/HTTPS and a 
private pool for AJP), then you'll see the appropriate thread pools in 
Probe.

You can mix and match. You can define some Connectors to use the 
Executor thread pool, and others to use a private thread pool. You can 
define multiple Executor thread pools for sharing between different 
groups of Connectors.

If you don't configure a Connector to use an Executor, then it won't.

So in order to use an Executor, you need to configure two items.

1. The Executor

One or more, depending on your use case.

2. The Connector

Every Connector that should use an Executor needs to be configured to 
use one explicitly. There are examples in the supplied server.xml

I don't think you can without using an Executor.

. . . just my two cents.
