JBoss

From jManage

Connecting to JBoss 3.2.x and 4.0.x

Setup

jManage ships with JBoss 3.2.x jars. If you are using JBoss 4.0.x, you will need to copy the following jars from JBoss 4.0.x installation to JMANAGE_HOME\modules\jboss folder:

1. jbossall-client.jar
2. jboss-jmx.jar
3. jboss-system.jar

Before setting up Alerts in jManage for JBoss, you need to copy "jmanage-jboss.jar" from <jmanage-home>/modules/jboss to <jboss-server-config>/lib. For example, if you are running the "default" JBoss server configuration, copy this jar to: <jboss-home>/server/default/lib.

You will need to restart JBoss, after copying the file.

Adding JBoss Application

To add a JBoss application, choose JBoss from the list of available applications, and specify the following:

Name: This is the name you want to give to this application. Host: This is the host name or the IP address of the machine where JBoss is running.
Port: The default port is 1099.
Username: By default security is not enabled, so username doesn't need to be specified.
Password: By default security is not enabled, so password doesn't need to be specified.

Note that if you are using an IP Address to connect to a remote server, you might have an issue with connecting to the server. If you do, you will have to resolve that IP address in your hosts file. See the following thread for details: http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3840440

Connecting to both 3.2.x and 4.0.x

If you are using a single jManage instance to connect to both JBoss 3.2.4 and JBoss 4.0.x, copy the 4.0.x jars to the JMANAGE_HOME\modules\jboss folder.
