Hi,
On Windows x64 such tools as jconsole are unable to connect to 32bit 
JVM if they are launched on 64bit JVM and vice versa (32bit JVM can't 
attach 64bit JVM).
This is tracked as 6277710. One suggested approach is a provider that 
uses a helper executable and the existing mechanism rather than creating 
a new mechanism, it's just that nobody ever got to implementing it.
