How would you like to monitor the application server?

See status of deployed applications or seeing the status of the JBoss server?

[massoo]

yes

i would like to see monitor

# JVM Memory Usage
# Server Response Time
# Enterprise JavaBeans (EJBs)
# Metrics of all web applications
# Thread Pools
# Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) Pools
# JMS
# Application Cluster

Hi

Oki. Does your applicationservers run Java 1.5/5.0?, If they is, there's JMX, which can help. You do have to make some bat file and custom commands for it.

Im going to integrete support for monitoring of Applicationservers, in the .NET client. Mostly for Tomcat, but i dont know yet what kind of method it will use for monitoring. We are still using 1.42.x Java, which dont have as many ways to monitor.

you can also monitor these stats over jmx-snmp! how i will do. here are some oid's:

enterprises.42.2.145.3.163.1.1.1.1.0 --> jvmClassesLoadedCount
enterprises.42.2.145.3.163.1.1.2.11.0 --> jvmMemoryHeapUsed
enterprises.42.2.145.3.163.1.1.3.1.0 --> jvmThreadCount
