How to remove a timer from JMX Console

[icordoba]

Hi there,
I have a big problem in a very important JBoss App. It creates several instances of the same timer. Until I fix it I need to remove the duplicated instances without shutting down JBoss.
I see in JMX Console, listing Timers:

[target=jboss.j2ee:jndiName=tuportal/MailRelay,service=EJB]
handle: [id=30,target=[target=jboss.j2ee:jndiName=tuportal/MailRelay,service=EJB],first=05-Feb-2007 00:28:56.269,periode=120000]
[id=30,target=[target=jboss.j2ee:jndiName=tuportal/MailRelay,service=EJB],remaining=-66924226,periode=120000,active]
handle: [id=32,target=[target=jboss.j2ee:jndiName=tuportal/MailRelay,service=EJB],first=05-Feb-2007 18:18:48.400,periode=120000]
[id=32,target=[target=jboss.j2ee:jndiName=tuportal/MailRelay,service=EJB],remaining=-2732095,periode=120000,active]
handle: [id=31,target=[target=jboss.j2ee:jndiName=tuportal/MailRelay,service=EJB],first=05-Feb-2007 18:00:16.395,periode=120000]
[id=31,target=[target=jboss.j2ee:jndiName=tuportal/MailRelay,service=EJB],remaining=-3844100,periode=120000,active]
handle: [id=37,target=[target=jboss.j2ee:jndiName=tuportal/MailRelay,service=EJB],first=05-Feb-2007 19:07:39.903,periode=120000]
[id=37,target=[target=jboss.j2ee:jndiName=tuportal/MailRelay,service=EJB],remaining=79407,periode=120000,active]
handle: [id=29,target=[target=jboss.j2ee:jndiName=tuportal/MailRelay,service=EJB],first=05-Feb-2007 18:05:15.942,periode=120000]
[id=29,target=[target=jboss.j2ee:jndiName=tuportal/MailRelay,service=EJB],remaining=-3544554,periode=120000,active]


Whick MBean and how must I invoke it to remove timers with ids 32, 31, 37 and 29?
thanks for any help.

You can only do clearTimers() from persistencePolicy=database,service=EJBTimerService.

Or connect to the timer database directly and remove the rows you don't want (this is a hack).

Thanks for the reply Dimitri,
I'am already removing timers from the persistencePlicy MBean, but I then need to stop & start Jboss. Is it possible to just stop or kill a running timer from a running JBoss without having to restart it?

Thanks for your help,
