2.2.1 Navigating and Interrogating Mbeans
TXST online provides simplified access to MBeans. While JMX APIs require you to use JMX object names to interrogate MBeans, TXST enables you to navigate a hierarchy of MBeans in a similar fashion to navigating a hierarchy of files in a file system.
Tuxedo organizes its MBeans in a hierarchical data model. In the TXST file system, MBean hierarchies correspond to drives; MBean instances are directories; MBean attributes and operations are files. TXST traverses the hierarchical structure of MBeans using commands such as cd, ls, and pwd in a similar way that you would navigate a file system in a UNIX or Windows command shell. After navigating to an MBean instance, you interact with the MBean using TXST commands.
In the hierarchy, the root directory is DomainMBean; each instance of the MBean type is a subdirectory; and MBean attributes and parameters are nodes (like files) under the MBean instance directory.
