Viewing register MBean on other domains

[mikeklem]

I created an MBeanServer with the default domain "foobar" and register an MBean to it. As a stand alone app this works fine. I can view the registered MBean from my browser by going to port 8082.

If I put the same code in a J2EE app running under JBoss I can only view the MBeans registered under the JBoss default domain MBean server.

Is there a way to view Mbeans registered under different domains or do I need to just use the default domain MBean server?

BTW: I am using JBoss 2.4.4

Don't create a new MBeanServer,
find the existing one using the MBeanServerFactory.

Alternatively, put your MBean config in jboss.jcml

We want t place our mbeans in our app specific domain name. Does it not make sense to do so?

We figure if you are managing multiple apps, each app would have its own domain name for its mbeans.

Also, we would prefer, we think, to not display the JBoss mbeans. The reason would be to provide the people using the tools with a very simple interface.

There is nothing to stop you registering in
your own domain.

registerMBean(myBean, "MyDomain:foo=bar");

You can subset the html adaptor using the pattern
MyDomain:*

If that isn't what you want, you'll have to register
a new html adaptor using a different port with
your private MBeanServer.
