Don't forget -V (since some applications use -v for verbose)

This is java, it would be

-D-XX:VerboseRuntime=true

-XX is for implementation specific VM flags an generally uses + or -

-D is for system property and uses key value

so it would either be

-XX:+VerboseRuntime

or

-Djdk.runtime.verbose=true
