2.1.1.1 How Does TXST Work?

You can use the scripting tool online (connected to a running Tuxedo domain or a JMX agent embedded in the tlisten process). For information on TXST commands, see TXST Command and Variable ReferenceTXST Command and Variable Reference.

Online, TXST provides simplified access to Managed Beans (MBeans), Java objects that provide a management interface for an underlying resource that you can manage through JMX.

When TXST is connected to a Tuxedo domain, the scripting tool lets you navigate and interrogate MBeans, and supply configuration data to the instance. When TXST is connected to a JMX agent, its functionality is limited to commands which MBeans support.
