About the BookWith Java Management Extensions (JMX), you can configure, manage and monitor your Java applications at run-time, as well as break your applications into components that can be swapped out. JMX provides a window into an application's state and its behavior, and a protocol-independent way of altering both state and behavior. It lets you expose portions of your application in just a few lines of code. Written for both new and experienced developers, this book explains the JMX specification and discusses its use through clean, well-discussed examples. It covers the JMX architecture and how to create all types of MBeans. It includes important advanced topics such as extending the JMX classes, combining with other Java technologies, the MBean relation service, dynamic MBean loading, and creating your own protocol adapters. Special to the JDC Bookshelf: The JMX quiz, written by co-author, Ben Sullins. Test your JMX knowledge and take this quiz. About the ChaptersChapter 2, "'Hello World,' the JMX way," serves as this book's "Hello World" example and introduces all of the major components in the JMX framework. In this chapter, you will create a simple MBean, a simple agent, and a notification. In addition, this chapter sets up your working environment for the remaining examples in other chapters as well as introduces the HTML adapter from Sun Microsystems. Chapter 9, "Communicating with JMX agents," discusses creating and using different protocol adapters and connectors with JMX agents. It presents the RMI connector, a Jini connector, and a Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) adapter. There is also some discussion about using Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and JMX. The adapter examples in this chapter can be used to create custom adapters for your own purposes.
