Using JConsole to Monitor iWay Service Manager

How to:

The Java Monitoring and Management Console (JConsole) can be used to provide information on iWay Service Manager (iSM) performance and resource consumption running on a Java platform. The JConsole uses Java Management Extension (JMX) technology.

Procedure: How to Use JConsole to Monitor iSM

  1. Log on to the iWay Service Manager Administration Console.
  2. Click Java Settings in the left pane.
  3. In the Java Virtual Machine Settings section, specify the Java options from the GUI configuration.
  4. Click Update.

    Note: Use caution when modifying the Java settings. If you make a mistake, then iSM will not start. Perform the following steps if you encounter a problem.

    1. Navigate to the following directory:
      iwayhome\config

      where:

      iwayhome

      Is the name of the directory where iSM is installed.

    2. Edit the config.xml file.

      The config.xml file contains all of the parameters that you added in the Java Virtual Machine Settings section of the iSM console.

      The value in this file is as follows:

      -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=12345

      You can use the following example for reference purposes when using a remote system for access:

      -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=12345
      -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false
      -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false
    3. Stop and start iSM.
    4. Using JConsole, access iSM by entering the host name and port.
