Sun Java Enterprise System 5 Technical Overview

Monitoring Components

The Sun Java System Monitoring Console 1.0 (Monitoring Console) includes a master agent that connects to all node agents in a Java ES deployment. The Monitoring Console is supported by the Sun Java System Monitoring Framework 2.0 (Monitoring Framework), a shared component that provides the instrumentation and node agent needed by every monitored component to expose its attributes for observation. Each product component exposes the objects that represent its observable attributes, and a node agent aggregates a view of multiple components on one host. For detailed information about monitoring, see the Sun Java Enterprise System 5 Monitoring Guide.
