Hi,

Firstly make sure you have JMX monitoring enabled on the Tomcat machine.

Then give this a try:

Hi

The ncpa.cfg line for .jar should be:

Code: Select all

.jar = java -jar $plugin_name $plugin_args

verify that the check_jvm.jar file is in /usr/local/ncpa/plugins (on the Tomcat machine)

make sure this works on the Tomcat machine:

Code: Select all

cd /usr/local/ncpa/plugins
java -jar check_jvm.jar -s service:jmx:rmi:///jndi/rmi://localhost:9000/jmxrmi -u tomcat -p tomcat -t tomcat -C ClassCount:"http-nio-8080"  -w 10000 -c 50000

***** note the -C ClassCount:"http-nio-8080" you have -C ClassCount *****


At this point we should have everything set up correctly on the Tomcat machine. If not we need to fix it first.

Then on the xi server:

where $ARGS1$ is:

-t mytoken -P 5693 -M plugins/check_jvm.jar -a '-s "service:jmx:rmi:///jndi/rmi://localhost:9000/jmxrmi" -u tomcat -p tomcat -t tomcat -C ClassCount:"http-nio-8080" -w 10000 -c 50000'

Please let me know the result.

Thanks
