20 Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI)/LDAP Lookup Service

The JMX API defines three bindings to lookup services, using existing lookup technologies This examples provide a sample implementation of the JNDI/LDAP Lookup Service. The source code contained in this section is used to create corresponding files in the examples/ directory specified in the appropriate setup procedure and includes:

  • README file

  • Server

  • Client

  • jmx-schema.txt

  • 60jmx-schema.ldif

# ==============================================================================
#
# Example of using JNDI/LDAP as Lookup service - registering and looking up
# an RMI Connector (IIOP/JRMP)
#
# ==============================================================================
#
# Requirements:
#
# Before running this example you will have to:
# ---------------------------------------------
#
# * Get access (or install & start) an LDAP directory server that
#   will implement the lookup service.
# * Make sure the Java Schema (RFC 2713: http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2713.txt)
#   is known by that server
# * Update the directory server with JSR 160 LDAP Schema
#   - 60jmx-schema.ldif file provided
#   This ldif file corresponds to the schema described in jmx-schema.txt
#   and can be copied as is in the config/schema directory of
#   the Sun ONE Directory Server.
# * Make sure you have write access to the server so that you can
#   create contexts in which the server will register its URL.
#
# The names used in this example make the assumption that you
# have created a new suffix, a database, and a root node (e.g. dc=Test)
# for the purpose of the example. You may however use any names / location
# you want - just make sure to provide the correct names & URLs
# when starting the Server and Client examples.
#
# In addition, if you wish to use an external directory for the  RMI JMX
# Connectors (URLs of the form jmx:service:[rmi|iiop]:/host:port/jndi/jndi-url)
# then:
#
#   o If you wish to use rmiregistry in conjunction with the RMI/JRMP
#     JMX Connector you will have to start a rmiregistry (see below).
#
#   o If you wish to use CORBA Naming Service in conjunction with the RMI/IIOP
#     JMX Connector you will have to start an ORB daemon (see below).
#
#   o If you wish to use LDAP in conjunction with the RMI JMX Connectors
#     you will have to install/setup a directory server (you can use the
#     same server than that used for Lookup, or another one)
#
# In order to compile and run the example, make a copy of this README file, and
# then simply cut and paste all the commands as needed into a terminal window.
#
# This README makes the assumption that you are running under Java SE 6 on Unix,
# you are familiar with the JMX technology, with LDAP and JNDI, and with
# the bourne shell or korn shell syntax.
#
# All the commands below are defined using Unix korn shell syntax.
#
# If you are not running Unix and korn shell you are expected to be able to
# adapt these commands to your favorite OS and shell environment.
#

#-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The directory server must be started first.
#       You will have
#       to make sure the Java Schema (RFC 2713: 
#       http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2713.txt) is known by that server

#-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Start an rmiregistry
#
rmiregistry 9999 &

#-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Start an ORB daemon:
#
rm -rf ./orb.db
orbd -ORBInitialPort 7777 &

#-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Compile Server.java and Client.java
#
# * Server.java: creates an MBeanServer, creates and starts an
#                RMI connector (JRMP/IIOP)
# * Client.java: lookup a connector in JNDI
#                list all MBeans.

#-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Below we illustrate the different JMX Connector Servers
# which you have the choice to start. 
# There are seven cases labelled (a) to (f):
#
#   * RMI Connectors
#       + over JRMP
#           - without any external directory (a)
#           - using rmiregistry as external directory (b)
#           - using LDAP as external directory (c)
#       + over IIOP
#           - without any external directory (d)
#           - using CORBA Naming Service as external directory (e)
#           - using LDAP as external directory (f)

# NOTE-1: As defined in section 6.1 "Terminology" of the "JMX Remote API 1.0
# Specification" document, an agent is composed of one MBean Server and of
# one or more Connector Servers. There can be several agents running in one JVM.
# For flexibility of this example, the jndi.Server class creates an agent which
# is composed of one MBean Server and of only one Connector Server. The class
# jndi.Server decides which type of Connector Server to create depending on the
# value given to the "url" system property when you start the example.

# NOTE-2: The value of the "agent.name" system property is the value that the
# jndi.Server class will give to the "AgentName" lookup attribute when it
# registers the connector's URL in the lookup service. As defined in Table 6.1
# "Lookup attributes for connectors" of the "JMX Remote API 1.0 Specification"
# document: the "AgentName" lookup attribute is a simple name used to identify
# the *AGENT* to which the connector is attached. It makes it possible to
# search, with a query to the lookup service, for all the connectors registered
# by a given agent.

# (a) You can start an agent with an RMI Connector Server over JRMP
#     without using any external directory
#
java -classpath . -Ddebug=true \
     -Dagent.name=test-server-a \

# (b) Or you can start an agent with an RMI Connector Server over JRMP
#     using rmiregistry as external directory
#     (Start rmiregistry first, if not yet started)

#     using LDAP as external directory

# (e) Or you can start an agent with an RMI Connector Server over IIOP
#     using CORBA Naming Service as external directory
#     (Start ORBD first if not yet started).
#
java -classpath . -Ddebug=true \

# (f) Or you can start an agent with an RMI Connector Server over IIOP
#     using LDAP as external directory
#     (First start an LDAP server and create the dc=Test suffix)
#
