Hi Folks. I have looked through the archives looking for an answer on what to do to get the JMXConfigurator working with WebSphere. The last entry I was able to see was from Ceki on Jun 12, 2012. Has anyone done any further research into this? If not, this is what I have found.
I have spent some time trying to understand the problem. What I have been able to figure out is how to configure WebSphere to show the Logback JMX MBean in an "unsupported" mode using the platform MBean server. found here ( https://jazz.net/help-dev/clm/index.jsp?re=1&topic=/com.ibm.jazz.repository.web.admin.doc/topics/c_server_mon_was.html&scope=null ) Essentially, you need to configure websphere with the following JVM arguments: -Dcom.ibm.team.server.monitoring.mbean.server=WebSphere -Djavax.management.builder.initial= -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote=true -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=1099 -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false Once I did this, I was able to get jconsole to allow me to manage Logback within WebSphere. I would prefer to be able to use jconsole in the supported JSR160RMI connector mode. This involves configuring websphere with the following JVM argument: -Dcom.ibm.team.server.monitoring.mbean.server=WebSphere and then configuring jconsole with the information contained in the same article in the Option 2: Setting up JMX in JSR160RMI connector section. When I configured WebSphere and jconsole in this fashion, I was able to connect to an MBean server, but it did not include the Logback bean. With the help of a couple of coworkers, we were able to find the following documentation: https://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SS7K4U_8.5.5/com.ibm.websphere.base.doc/ae/tjmx_standard_dynamic_mbean.html?lang=en which indicates that WebSphere expects that the MBean be registered as follows: MBeanFactory mbfactory = AdminServiceFactory.getMBeanFactory(); mbfactory.activateMBean("SnoopMBean", snoop, "snoopMBeanId", "SnoopMBean.xml"); The code I downloaded from git for Logback shows that the JMXConfigurator uses the following: MBeanServer mbs = ManagementFactory.getPlatformMBeanServer(); mbs.registerMBean(jmxConfigurator, objectName); I was thinking that an appropriate solution to the WebSphere problem might be to add a JVM config flag such as org.qos.logback.websphere and if the flag is set to true, the begin() method of the JMXConfiguratorAction class could follow the expected IBM MBean registration instead of the standard. Opinions?
