What is the best strategy for UserParameters?

[Bati]

Hi,

My Zabbix agent is running on a server to monitore an application server. This application server was implemented in Java. I'd like to monitor some values of variable from the current execution of the application server.

Actually, my java program writes the values in a file and I configure my UserParameters to be able to read the right value in this file. I'm not sure this solution is the best one...

Is it possible to implement something in java that'll be monitored by my zabbix server?

Finally, what is the best solution to achieve my problem? Write in a file the value or implementing something?

Thank you very much

You could use ZapCat (bridge JMX<=>Zabbix Agent Protocol) and store counters on MBeans object

I'm trying but it seems that this framework doesn't yet work with Glassfish...
Of course, I wanna use Glassfish.

Do you have an another solution?

thanks

i use glassfish too.

it works but not with the "stable" version (support old zabbix protocol and other).

Give the dev version a try

ok.

How do I deploy the zapCat.war? because I've some problems if I deploy by using the console administration of glassfish

thx

[Bati]

Could you tell me what are the big steps to accomplish this on glassfish?

I would be very happy...

Thank you very much!
