12 Managing JMX

This chapter describes how you can use Oracle CEP Visualizer to view Java Management Extensions (JMX) configuration for use with Oracle CEP.

For more information, see Section 9.3, "JMX Management".

12.1 Viewing JMX Configuration

Using the Oracle CEP Visualizer, you can view JMX configuration.

12.1.1 How to View JMX Configuration

Using the Oracle CEP Visualizer, you can view the JMX configuration for a selected Oracle CEP server.

To view JMX configuration:

  1. In the left pane, click the Domain > Server node, where Domain refers to the name of your Oracle CEP domain and Server refers to the name of the server instance.

  2. In the right pane, click the JMX tab.

    The JMX tab appears as Figure 12-1 shows.

    Figure 12-1 JMX Tab

    Description of Figure 12-1 follows
    Description of "Figure 12-1 JMX Tab"

  3. The JMX properties are displayed in the table:

    • jndi-service-name—The name of the JNDI service to which the JMX server will bind its object.

    • rmi-service-name—The name of the RMI service with which the JMX server will register to receive calls.

    • rmi-jrmp-port—The port on which to listen for RMI JRMP JMX requests.

    • rmi-registry-port—The port on which to start the RMIRegistry.

    Note:

    Oracle CEP does not support the JRMP protocol: an Oracle CEP JMX client does not use the rmi-jrmp-port or rmi-registry-port properties. Instead, JMX clients must use the more secure MSA protocol for both local and remote access to the Oracle CEP JMX server. When you connect to the Oracle CEP JMX server that is running on localhost or on a remote host, you must always use the JMX URL service:jmx:msarmi://HOST-NAME:PORT/jndi/jmxconnector so that you are always using the MSA connector (where HOST-NAME is either localhost or the name of the remote host and PORT is the Oracle CEP server JNDI port). For more information, see "Accessing the Oracle CEP JMX Server" in the Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrator's Guide for Oracle Complex Event Processing.

12.2 Editing JMX Configuration

You can only view the JMX configuration of your Oracle CEP server using Oracle CEP Visualizer. To change the configuration, you must manually update the server's config.xml file.

For more information, see "Configuring JMX for Oracle CEP" in the Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrator's Guide for Oracle Complex Event Processing.
