Sun has been releasing early access versions of an implementation of JSR 262, which is the web services connector for JMX. This means that you can use WS-M to manage JMX-enabled resources. WS-M in turn means that you can plug directly into a wide range of tools, including HP Openview and Microsoft Windows Remote Management (WinRM). The main players all support WS-M (MS, IBM, HP). This was always my vision for the management work. I think we need to be able to support third party tools, and WS-M or SNMP are the obvious ways of doing this. To bring these together, could the C++ broker be made to support WS-M? > Is this a direction we want to take, and if so this is also a very nice > area for someone to work on the project.

It would be an interesting project for someone to get the WS-M early access implementation and make it work with Qpid: http://java.sun.com/javase/technologies/core/mntr-mgmt/javamanagement/ RG
