Configuring local JMX connection to the Liberty profile

You can access the local Java™ Management Extensions (JMX) connector on the Liberty profile. The local connector is enabled through the Liberty feature localConnector-1.0.

About this task

The local connector is enabled through the Liberty feature localConnector-1.0. Access through the local connector is protected by the policy implemented by the SDK in use. Currently the SDKs require that the client runs on the same host as the Liberty profile, and under the same user ID.

Note: An application deployed on the Liberty profile has unrestricted access to its MBeanServer directory.

The following section describes how to configure and access the local connector on the Liberty profile.

Procedure

Enable the local connector by using the following code in the server.xml file.

<featureManager>
     <feature>localConnector-1.0</feature>
</featureManager>

Access the local connector by using the JConsole tool or JMX client that is installed on the same host.
- For the JConsole tool, select the local process ws-server.jar defaultServer from the connection panel then click Connect.
- For the JMX client, see Working with JMX MBeans on the Liberty profile.
