Remko Popma commented on LOG4J2-500: ------------------------------------ The new ObjectNames correctly separate MBeans for multiple web applications. Unloading a webapp now correctly unregisters the MBeans for only that LoggerContext. Two items remain: # (at least in Tomcat 7.0.50 and 8.0.1) listeners and filters need to be configured in web.xml in order for the Log4j2 MBeans to be unregistered when the web application is undeployed. We expected that to happen automatically in Servlet 3.0 containers. LOG4J2-529 was created to track this issue. # The Log4J2 JMX GUI needs to dynamically update and add/remove the relevant tabs when MBeans for a LoggerContext are registered/unregistered. I'll create a separate Jira ticket to track this issue. > Unloading one webapp unloads JMX MBeans for all webapps > ------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LOG4J2-500 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-500 > Project: Log4j 2 > Issue Type: Bug > Components: JMX > Affects Versions: 2.0-rc1 > Reporter: Remko Popma > Assignee: Remko Popma > > As a stopgap solution for LOG4J2-406, all MBeans are unregistered when a > LoggerContext is stopped. > In an application server, multiple web applications can be deployed and > undeployed independently and a better solution would only unregister the > MBeans associated with the web application that is being undeployed. > Current MBean ObjectNames look like this (simplified): > {code} > ...StatusLogger > ...ContextSelector > ...LoggerContext,ctx=%s > ...LoggerConfig,ctx=%s,name=%s > ...Appender,ctx=%s,name=%s > ... > {code} > Assuming that every web application has a unique name, and this name becomes > the name of the LoggerContext, then one solution would be to create > StatusLogger and ContextSelector MBeans that have the LoggerContext name in > their ObjectName: > {code} > ...StatusLogger,ctx=%s > ...ContextSelector,ctx=%s > ...LoggerContext,ctx=%s > ...LoggerConfig,ctx=%s,name=%s > ...Appender,ctx=%s,name=%s > ... > {code} > This way, every web application would have its own StatusLogger and > ContextSelector MBeans. The MBeans may point to the same (shared) underlying > StatusLogger and ContextSelector objects. When a web application is > undeployed, unregistering all MBeans associated with the LoggerContext will > not affect any MBeans associated with another web application (which has it > own, separate, LoggerContext). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.5#6160) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: log4j-dev-unsubscr...@logging.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: log4j-dev-h...@logging.apache.org
