Sun Java Enterprise System 5 Release Notes for UNIX

Console does not always reflect when a monitored component is stopped (6487785)

When a monitored component crashes or is stopped normally, its monitored objects may not be removed from the node agent and remain visible in the left-hand tree of the Monitoring Console. Similarly, if you stop an entire node agent, the host node may not be removed from the left-hand tree. This issue occurs intermittently.

Solution When you stop or restart a server instance, you may need to restart the node agent, the master agent and the Monitoring Console. If you stop a host and its node agent, you may need to restart the master agent and the Monitoring Console. The procedure To Restart a Node Agent in Sun Java Enterprise System 5 Monitoring Guide describes how to do both.
