The JMX Console is the JBoss Management Console which provides a raw view of the JMX MBeans which make up the server. They can provide a lot of information about the running server and allow you to modify its configuration, start and stop components and so on.
What is the use of JMX console?
This tool uses Java Management Extension (JMX) technology to provide information on performance and resource consumption of applications running on the Java platform. You can use JConsole to perform remote management operations, view performance of processes, and troubleshoot problematic areas of SiteScope.
What is JMX and how it works?
JMX Monitoring is done by querying data from “Managed Beans” (MBeans) that are exposed via a JVM port (JMX console). An MBean represents a resource running inside a JVM and provides data on the configuration and usage of that resource. MBeans are typically grouped into “domains” to denote where resources belong to.
