I'm getting close to having my server converted to use Avalon/Merlin. The old version of the server used Sun's JMX reference implementation to expose a bunch of knobs and windows that let me examine and tweak my running server. Since Merlin appears to use mx4j, I assumed I'd be able to expose similar stuff in the new server (though I disabled all of the interfaces for the time being.)
Can someone give me a quick overview (or pointer to a quick overview) on getting starting with JMX in Merlin? I've tried running it with -jmx, but then I don't see how I can access the mbeans. Or how I make my own components managed.
The most you can do in 3.0 is use the -jmx cli argument to lauch a jmx server thart contains the merlin kernel. From there you can starup, shutdown, modify, restart, reshutdown, etc.
The real solution is comming in 3.3/3.4 with the addition of a model listener that will handle auto registration of component mbeans using a plugin facility.
Stephen.
