Java Dynamic Management Kit 5.1 Tutorial

6.1.1 MBean List

The MBean list contains all MBeans whose object name matches the filter string. Object names can be filtered by their domain name and list of key-value pairs. In this list, MBeans are sorted and grouped by domain name. Each MBean name listed is an active link to the page of the corresponding MBean view.

After its initialization, the contents of an agent are dynamic. New MBeans can be created and registered into new or existing domains and old MBeans can be removed. These changes can also affect the functionality of the agent. New agent services can be registered (or removed) as well. We will demonstrate examples of dynamic management in 6.3.1 Instantiating and Managing MBeans.
