JMX

JMX

Java Management Extensions (JMX) is a Java technology that supplies tools for managing and monitoring applications, system objects, devices and service-oriented networks. Those resources are represented by objects called MBeans. In the API, classes can be dynamically loaded and instantiated.

Preprocessing

  • Discard unchanged with heartbeat: 10m

Preprocessing

  • Discard unchanged with heartbeat: 10m
Memory: Non-Heap memory used

Current memory usage outside the heap

Preprocessing

  • Discard unchanged with heartbeat: 10m
Memory: Object pending finalization count

The approximate number of objects for which finalization is pending.

Preprocessing

  • Discard unchanged with heartbeat: 10m
OperatingSystem: File descriptors maximum count

This is the number of file descriptors we can have opened in the same process, as determined by the operating system. You can never have more file descriptors than this number.

 JMX agent jmx["java.lang:type=OperatingSystem","MaxFileDescriptorCount"]

Preprocessing

  • Discard unchanged with heartbeat: 10m
OperatingSystem: File descriptors opened

This is the number of opened file descriptors at the moment, if this reaches the MaxFileDescriptorCount, the application will throw an IOException: Too many open files. This could mean you are opening file descriptors and never closing them.

 JMX agent jmx["java.lang:type=OperatingSystem","OpenFileDescriptorCount"]
OperatingSystem: Process CPU Load

ProcessCpuLoad represents the CPU load in this process.
