WildFly and JMX

Internal

• WildFly Concepts
• JSR 160 Java Management Extensions (JMX) Remote API
• Enabling JMX Access to a JVM

Overview

Each WildFly instance has a JMX bus with various JMX MBeans plugged in. The JMX MBeans expose management functionality, which can be used in monitoring or operations.

The JMX bus can be accessed in three ways:

1. The preferred method: using the Remoting connector. For more details, see Remoting and JMX Access.
2. Activating the JVM's built-in JMX remote access.. See Enabling JMX Access to a JVM.
3. The attach API. Is this what VisualVM uses when attaching to "Local"?. TODO
