Verifying discovery

After you have set up your JBoss Application Server, verify that the JBoss instance icon appears in the BMC PATROL Console. Verify that all servers, containers, and instances that you expect to see are discovered and are displaying appropriate performance data.

To verify discovery

  1. From the PatrolMainMap, open the computer window and verify that the JBoss instance icon is present.
    The icon in the following figure is a container that represents the environment under a JBoss administration server:

  2. Double-click the JBoss instance icon to display the application servers that are being monitored.
    As many application server instances are present at this level as you registered. If you went through the configuration process only once for a single server, you see one server instance icon. To add more servers, repeat the Initial KM setup.
  3. Double-click a server instance icon.
    The PATROL window, shown in the following figure, displays icons that correspond to the container application classes.

  4. Double-click one of the container icons.

    The subservices or parameters that you selected for activation are displayed. If you do not see the parameters or subservices that you expected, you might have missed a step in setting up performance monitoring, including setting the application server to the required performance monitoring level.
  5. Continue double-clicking container icons and reviewing parameters until you are satisfied that the system is being correctly monitored.

Where to go from here

You are now ready to monitor and manage your JBoss Application Server environment. For the KM to interact successfully with JBoss Application Server, the right accounts must be in place and have the access that they require.

For information about changing the settings in your JBoss Application Server environment, see Editing a JBoss environment.

For information about removing JBoss Application Server environments from the BMC PATROL Console, see Unregistering a JBoss environment.
