You just have to deploy a .war on your TomCat (and certainly GlassFish, I didn't try it) servers and then you just have to send some HTTP request to your server to obtain readings about your JVM.

Hi Marc, the jmx4perl agent is now called jolokia http://labs.consol.de/lang/de/jolokia/ http://www.jolokia.org/ There is also an JVM Agent which can be used with Sun Java 6+ http://www.jolokia.org/agent/jvm.html Joerg Hi all, I know the thread is a little out-dated but I found this quite interesting in order to supervise JVM without agent and with SNMP. http://download.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/management/snmp.html You have to restart your JVM and open some TCP port but it doesn't jeopardize your system by deploying a new application.

I would think you could continue to use check_jmx4perl on the Tomcat server and get it to send the results back to Nagios as a passive check using send_nsca. You can either use the send_nsca which is built in to NSClient++, or there is a standalone binary send_nsca which is quite easy to use ( http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Addons/Passive-Checks/NSCA-Win32-Client/details ). You will of course need to configure the nsca daemon on your Nagios server if you haven't done that already. hth, Jim Thank you Jim for your answer. I will use passive checks with NSCA.
