8 Java Usage Tracker Setup for Advanced Management Console
This topic contains the following sections describe the Java Usage Tracker configuration for the Advanced Management Console on Windows, macOS, and Linux operating systems:
Setting Up Java Usage Tracker on Windows, macOS, and Linux Desktops
The Advanced Management Console agent automatically configures Java Usage Tracker on agent-managed desktops on supported platforms.
See Software Prerequisites and System Requirements for Advanced Management Console Components for the list of supported platforms.
Starting from Advanced Management Console version
2.5, agents configure Java Usage Tracker to report records to Advanced Management Console agents instead of sending
them directly to the Advanced Management Console
server over the User Datagram Protocol (UDP). Agents then re-send the records to the Advanced Management Console server over
https
. The Java Usage Tracker ensures that every JRE located on the
desktop sends its Java usage data to the Advanced Management Console server.
Note:
When Advanced Management Console is running in a cluster, the agent communicates with the load balancer and the UDP listener for the Java Usage Tracker records may not be supported.Setting up Java Usage Tracker on Unsupported Agent Platforms
The Advanced Management Console supports
Linux distributions having systemd
or upstart
service management framework. For distributions not supported, the Java Usage
Tracker can be configured manually.
