Nagios Support Forum

hi team,
i have setup jmx for monitor jvm
- Added parameters to jvm :
-Djavax.management.builder.initial=
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=9000

- port was ready :
[root@dc-nagiosxi-uat01 mSign]# telnet 192.168.104.250 9000
Trying 192.168.104.250...
Connected to 192.168.104.250.
Escape character is '^]'.

- but run check_jvm was getting error :
[root@dc-nagiosxi-uat01 libexec]# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_jmx -U service:jmx:rmi:///jndi/rmi://192.168.104.250:9000/jmxrmi -O java.lang:type=Memory -A HeapMemoryUsage -K used -I HeapMemoryUsage -J used -vvvv -w 4248302272 -c 5498760192

Hello @sacom01

Thanks for reaching out, and providing the telnet results on port 9000. Want to verify that there is no security application or anything else blocking since we are getting:

Connection refused to host

Verify selinux is disabled:
Please post the output of this command from your XI server:
and Please let us know the results,
Perry

hi Perry,
Thanks for your reply.

Verify selinux is disabled: --> client server is AIX 7.1, already disable firewalld.
Nagios server is Redhat 7

Hello @sacom01

Thanks for following up with the details and screenshot. What do you have set on the AIX client side?

-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=9000
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=?
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=?

Do you see anything logged on the AIX client that is failing?

Thanks,
Perry

Hello @sacom01

Please also check to see what 'netstat' says about port 9000 on both.

• netstat -an | grep -Ei '9000'

Thanks,
Perry

hi Perry,
No log appear in AIX client side.
thanks.

Hello @sacom01

Thanks for following up with the details. We see that JMX monitoring is enabled with "-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote"

Understand that you want to end up running this check:

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_jmx -U service:jmx:rmi:///jndi/rmi://192.168.104.250:9000/jmxrmi -O java.lang:type=Memory -A HeapMemoryUsage -K used -I HeapMemoryUsage -J used -vvvv -w 4248302272 -c 5498760192

For the time being let's verify that we can get a check to circle back with results:

• Code: Select all

  java -jar check_jvm.jar -s "service:jmx:rmi:///jndi/rmi://yourhostaddresshere:9000/jmxrmi" -u 'username' -p 'password'-t token -C "Uptime" -w 10 -c 20

• Code: Select all

  java -jar check_jvm.jar -s service:jmx:rmi:///jndi/rmi://yourhostaddresshere:9000/jmxrmi -u 'username' -p 'password' -t token -C Uptime,ThreadCount -w 10 -c 20

Let us know the results,
Perry

hi Perry,
i dont know what is "-u 'username' -p 'password'", i indicated connection protocol is unsecure :
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false

If i do not specify username password, the results are :

[root@dc-nagiosxi-uat01 libexec]# java -jar check_jvm.jar -s service:jmx:rmi:///jndi/rmi://192.168.104.250:9000/jmxrmi -t mytoken -C Uptime,ThreadCount -w 10 -c 20

Hello @sacom01

Checking on the specifics on the credentials, meantime please check on this, should have both:
Thanks,
Perry

hi,
i tried but no luck.
-Djavax.management.builder.initial=
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=9000

Notice: first, i want to use unsecure connection, so we can skip username and pw. And we need monitor JVM, not jettty
