Hi,
I'm new to NetXMS and want to monitor JVM as given in JVM monitoring — NetXMS Administrator Guide (4.4.3) (https://www.netxms.org/documentation/adminguide/jvm-monitoring.html).
I have created new DCI parameter as below:
Parameter : JMX.Memory.Heap.Current({instance})
Instance Discovery Method : Agent List
What should be the List name? Is any filtering script required? Please help!
Hi,
this (and other) metrics requires JMX server name as an argument. You define JMX servers in agent configuration file (see https://www.netxms.org/documentation/adminguide/jvm-monitoring.html#configuration) (https://www.netxms.org/documentation/adminguide/jvm-monitoring.html#configuration) Unfortunately, there is no agent list to return all configured JMX servers on that particular agent (we can add one in next release). So for now you cannot use instance discovery if you have multiple JMX servers monitored by one agent.
Best regards,
Victor
Hi,
So, in agent configuration file, under [JMX] if I define Server=servername:login/password@url, then Parameter becomes JMX.Memory.Heap.Current(servername), right? And if I'm connecting to local Wildfly JMX then I should write Server=servername:wildfly/wildfly@localhost:9990. Is this OK? I'm confused about how to mention the port number.
I have tried all 3 formats, none working.
1. name:url
2. name:login@url
3. name:login/password@url
Though I'm able to connect to local Wildfly through JConsole/VisualVM.
Please guide.
Regards,
Deep
I've use this stackoverflow post: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5552960/how-to-connect-to-a-java-program-on-localhost-jvm-using-jmx
For test I just use NetXMS management client:
java -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=1234 -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false -jar ~/Downloads/nxmc-4.4.4-standalone.jar
Agent config has this:
Server=s:service:jmx:rmi:///jndi/rmi://127.0.0.1:1234/jmxrmi
On debug level 6 agent produces the following output in it's log:
2023.12.08 13:09:14.786 *D* [comm.cs.68 ] Requesting metric "JMX.VM.Version(s)"
2023.12.08 13:09:14.917 *D* [ ] JMX: connected to service:jmx:rmi:///jndi/rmi://127.0.0.1:1234/jmxrmi
2023.12.08 13:09:14.919 *D* [ ] JMX: reading object java.lang:type=Runtime attribute VmVersion
I have no clue what all these things in the url mean, but hope that helps
Also, here's Oracle docs on the URL: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/javax/management/remote/JMXServiceURL.html
I'm using Server = name:service:jmx:remote+http://localhost:9990 as applicable for JBoss EAP 7.1/Wildfly 11
This is throwing, Exception in parameter handler: java.net.MalformedURLException: Unsupported protocol: remote+http
I'm supposed to include jboss-client.jar in the application(netxms agent) classpath. Is it possible in NetXMS agent to include an external jar?
Java subagent has a few configuration parameters that can be provided in [JAVA] section of agent configuration file. See the code for list of params:
https://github.com/netxms/netxms/blob/master/src/agent/subagents/java/main.cpp#L131
As I understand, you can use "ClassPath" parameter to add your .jar file.
Added jboss-client.jar using Classpath but that didn't solve the problem. Still getting java.net.MalformedURLException: Unsupported protocol: remote+http
I have found the problem with classpath setting in JMX plugin. Try to replace jmx.jar on your system with this version: https://cloud.radensolutions.com/s/WDCCtmPKHXGZwyo (https://cloud.radensolutions.com/s/WDCCtmPKHXGZwyo).
If you installed agent on Linux from packages it will be inside /usr/lib/netxms/java.

Hi Victor,
The agent is installed on a Windows machine, so I replaced the jmx.jar at \lib\java and now I'm getting the below given error:

Agent config file is as below:

ConfigIncludeDir = C:\NetXMS\etc\nxagentd.conf.d
LogFile = C:\NetXMS\log\nxagentd.log
FileStore = C:\NetXMS\var
SubAgent = winperf.nsm
SubAgent = java.nsm
DebugLevel = 6
[JAVA]
Jvm = C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_202\jre\bin\server\jvm.dll
Classpath = C:\NetXMS\lib\java\tools.jar;C:\NetXMS\lib\java\jboss-client.jar;C:\NetXMS\lib\java\jboss-cli-client.jar;
Plugin = jmx.jar
[JMX]
Server = name:service:jmx:remote+http://localhost:9990
Some info over the Internet suggests that jboss-cli-client.jar is better then then jboss-client.jar, so you may try removing C:\NetXMS\lib\java\jboss-client.jar; part from your classpath
It didn't make any difference. Same error.
