Monitor JVM Statistics
This source has been deprecated
observIQ is in the process of transitioning a subset of BindPlane's monitoring capabilities to the observIQ OpenTelemetry Collector. As a result, this Source is no longer publicly available in BindPlane. If you need access to this Source, please reach out to our support via chat or via [email protected].
Not Included in the BindPlane with Google Stackdriver offering
All of the Google Cloud Platform sources listed within this documentation are not included with the BindPlane with Google Stackdriver offering.
Data Collection Setup
Metrics are collected via JMX calls to the JVM monitoring endpoint. Java RMI Registry and Java Agent are some examples of what can be monitored with this Source.
Network Requirements
Network requirements are different based on the collection mechanism.
Examples:
Host and Port:
Hostname: cass3-ref-1.bluemedora.net
Port: 7199
Service URL:
service:jmx:rmi:///jndi/rmi://localhost:15000/jmxrmi
service:jmx:remote+http://jboss-eap-rh1:9990
Least Privileged User
Username and Password are only used when using a JVM Agent.
Connection Parameters
| Name | Required? | Description |
|---|---|---|
| JMX Connection Type | Provide the JMX Service URL or provide the Host and Port for the JMX service. | |
| Host | Required | The Host of the Java Virtual Machine. |
| Port | Required | The port for communication to the JMX agent. |
| JMX Service URL | Required | The syntax of a JMX service URL requires that you provide the transport protocol used to make the connection, as well as a service access point (e.g. service:jmx:rmi:///jndi/rmi://<host>:<port>). |
| Username | Required only if monitoring a Java VM through a JMX agent that requires password authentication. | |
| Password | Required only if monitoring a Java VM through a JMX agent that requires password authentication. |
Metrics
JVM
