Defining Conditions for an Unregistered MBean
Summary: Perform these steps to define conditions for monitoring a JMX MBean
that is not yet registered.
This feature may be useful for web application developers who would
like to roll out the ability to monitor MBeans before the managed
applications are registered.
Note
This feature requires detailed information about object names and
attributes. This capability is intended for advanced users. BMC Software
does not recommend this process for most users. Instead, roll out the web
application, register the MBeans, and follow the process described in
“Defining Conditions” on page 10-6.
To define conditions for an MBean that is not registered:
Step 1
Right-click a JMX server instance
icon (represented by the application name).
Step 2 From the KM Commands menu, choose Define Conditions.
If at least one other condition is defined, the Defined Conditions dialog is
displayed, otherwise, the Define Conditions dialog is displayed. If the
Defined Conditions dialog is displayed, click the
Add button, then click
Select. This will display the Defined Conditions dialog.
Step 3 Start defining the condition:
3.A Type a name for the condition. This name will be used as an
instance label on the icon that appears in your console window. It
will also be used to identify the condition if you make future
updates.
3.B Type the object name. You can use wildcards (? or *) to specify
multiple MBeans to be monitored for the condition.
