Hi,

I am trying to configure Jcollectd so that I get the statistics from Apache 
Tomcat server into a collectd instance which is running as a server.
I followed the steps mentioned in Jcollectd document 
(http://support.hyperic.com/display/hypcomm/jcollectd)
I could not get it to work successfully. I found that the configuration steps 
in the document were not very detailed.
I have some questions:
1. I am trying to configure Jcollectd in sender mode i.e. I need to collect the 
statistics from Tomcat into my collectd. Does collect sever have to be 
configured in Multicast mode for it? Can it also work with unicast mode?

2. The document mentions following steps for Tomcat configuration:

  export CATALINA_OPTS="-Djcd.instance=hudson -Djcd.dest=udp://10.1.0.102 
-Djcd.tmpl=javalang,tomcat -javaagent:collectd.jar"

  ./bin/catalina.sh start

  Is this all that is required to make Tomcat send Mbeans to collectd? Where 
collectd.jar should be placed so that Tomcat will pick it up?



If someone has successfully done something like this, any details about the 
configuration steps are appreciated.



Thanks,

Hrisheekesh.
