Advanced Features for JMX Monitoring
Several JMX features in PATROL for BEA WebLogic are provided for
advanced users or for troubleshooting purposes only. These features are
unlikely to be needed for routine setup and monitoring. Advanced
features include:
• Manually registering an MBean.
Typically, you will use your application to programmatically register
MBeans that manage it. You may occasionally want to register an
MBean for testing purposes.
• Defining conditions for MBeans that are not registered.
This may be useful, for example, for defining conditions on MBeans
that are in development or that support currently uninstalled
applications. This requires a deep knowledge of the MBean and how
it will be implemented.
• Setting debug flags.
Debugging information is not generally useful except when
troubleshooting specific problems.
