Nagios Support Forum

Hi guys

We want to implement memory checking for JBOSS via JBOSS SNMP Adaptor (default SNMP port 1161). I have done this memory checking from Cacti. And now implementing the same in Nagios. Is there any suitable Nagios plugin to check this without installing agent inside the JBOSS server and the check can be run remotely via SNMP adaptor like Cacti?

These are the JBOSS related plugins that we have listed currently:

Though you should be able to monitor the same metrics with SNMP on the Nagios server as you did with CACTI.

try jolokia agent in proxy mode.

It has 2 pieces.
A) agent : This can be installed in the JVM which needs be monitored or use it in Proxy mode to avoid installing in every JVM
B) Nagios plugin : the check_jmx4perl which you will need to connect to the agent to pull matrices.

We use it in proxy mode to monitor over 50 remote JVMs and works really nice.

Thanks for the feedback Mitchell!
