WildFly Domain by JMX

Overview

Official JMX Template for WildFly Domain Controller.

Requirements

Zabbix version: 7.0 and higher.

Tested versions

This template has been tested on:

  • WildFly 22.6.0

Configuration

Zabbix should be configured according to the instructions in the Templates out of the box section.

Setup

Metrics are collected by JMX. This template works with Domain Controller.

  1. Enable and configure JMX access to WildFly. See documentation for instructions.
  2. Copy jboss-client.jar from /(wildfly,EAP,Jboss,AS)/bin/client in to directory /usr/share/zabbix-java-gateway/lib
  3. Restart Zabbix Java gateway
  4. Set the user name and password in host macros {$WILDFLY.USER} and {$WILDFLY.PASSWORD}. Depending on your server setup, you may need to specify a custom JMX scheme in macro {$WILDFLY.JMX.PROTOCOL} (default: remote+http)

Macros used

Name Description Default
{$WILDFLY.USER} zabbix
{$WILDFLY.PASSWORD} zabbix
