Thanks Max, that's a good option to know about. Unfortunately I have a fairly strict requirement for an agentless architecture. It's possible to have some values set in cassandra-env for example, but I can't say "download and install this jar here" (Jalokia agent mode) or "run this code from here" (Jalokia proxy mode - Jalokia would still be using JMX over RMI I assume, but the proxy shields my application from having to make RMI calls directly).
Is JMX over RMI the only out-of-the-box way to communicate remotely with Cassandra's MBean server?
