Hi,
Can anyone tell me if there is a way to setup Xbootclasspath parameter for JVMs running under WMB 6.1 broker.
I am setting up a HP probe(please ignore my generic post sent earlier) for WMB 6.1 on AIX, which needs this parameter to be set up during 'broker startup script'.
Regards,
Prasanna |

You can use the mqsichangeproperties command to pass along JVM arguments to the JVM. If your arguments have spaces, use hockey sticks rather than double quotes. ie. `

HP Probe is a connectionless network instrumentation tool designed to provide the name-to-address mapping information between HP nodes using Network Services on HP Data Communications and Terminal Controllers. It uses TCP/IP as the transport, IP and link-level station (MAC) addresses to address packets between nodes.
What value does it provide your business to integrate this function into WMB?

Sorry, I meant HP Diagnostics Probes which caputre events such as method invocations, beginning and end of business transactions and method invocations from applications.
I am using the Java Agent to collect the performance stats.
I just wanted to know how a java probing agent works with WMB generally.
say for eg: Netbeans agent, does it collect all the info of a WMB code or just the java portion of it. Little confused. |

What business value are you attempting to reach by configuring this?
Are you attempting to monitor the performance of your own Java code running in a JCN or as external procedures?
Are you attempting to monitor the broker's internal JVM and java usage? This is not valuable, as there is not a lot that you can then do to tune it. |

Java Virtual Machine does not have access to the C binary compiled memory objects or run-time stats. Any data you would get is restricted to JVM stats, which is only half the story.
WebSphere Business Monitor (WBM) is usually the tool of choice for collecting business transactional statistics from WMB. WMB has built-in support for that tool, and emits events using XML data packets to the WBM repository.
Was there something about WBM that did not meet your need?

JMX is the tool of choice for this task. You can implement JMX very easily with about 20 lines of code for each of your Java objects you want to monitor.

Does it work for ESQL as well? Seriously. I'm asking if it gets past the limitation you mentioned earlier with compiled C binary not visible to the JVM.

We are just testing out HP tool first since its already being used for .NET and other java applications. We did not get a chance to look into WBM or JMX.
will WMB Accouting and Statistics provide the same data?
Meanwhile i was trying mqsichangeproperties command. I get a very silly error.
mqsichangeproperties HP2 -e HP2 -o ComIbmJVMManage
r -n jvmSystemProperty -v Xbootclasspath=C:\MercuryDiagnostics\JavaAgent\DiagnosticsAgent\classes\IBM\1.5.0;
I am running WMB 6.1.0.3 with MQ 7.x on windows xp.
the error i am getting is this
BIP2210E: Invalid configuration message: attribute name 'jvmSystemProperty' not
valid for target object 'ComIbmJVMManager'. |

Perhaps the version of broker is trhe reason for the error. 6.1.0.3 is pretty long in the tooth. The property may well have been added in a later release. You might be so out of luck with this one.

Every time you reinvent the wheel the more square it gets (anon). If in doubt think and investigate before you ask silly questions. |

Yes, Java Singletons are callable from ESQL. I put all my performance management code in a Jar located in $MQSI_WORKPATH/shared-classes that then gets called by my compute nodes.

You have to enclose your path in hockey sticks, as was mentioned before.

Except, of course, jvmSystemProperty does not exist in 6.1.0.3, as mentioned before. |
