tutorial for timer mbean

[moschen]

hi,
does anybody know, where i can get more information about the timer mbean? i would like to know, what kind of functions it provides and how i exactly schedule jobs.
i have allready read the timer explanation in the jboss maual, but it did not tell much about the provided methods and the use of the parameters. where can i get more information about it?
is there something like an api doc for this mbean?

best regards,
lordi

Hi,

Timer MBean is a standard service provided by JMX.
So you can get the information from the JMX api doc.

Timer does not seem to start. I followed the online
doc by deploying a timer-service.xml file

But I don't see the timer service listed in the list
of mbeans and the message I have is

19:47:45,430 INFO [MainDeployer] Deployment of package: file:/u2/src/jboss/jboss-3.0.0RC2/server/default/deploy/jboss-timer.xml is waiting for an appropriate deployer.

DO I need to add a class path or something? The doc says
it's builtin.

I figured it out. Seems like it's critical that the
xml mbean configuration file end in -service.xml.

So jboss-timer.xml did not work, but
jboss-timer-service.xml did!

23:02:32,524 INFO [MainDeployer] Starting deployment of package: file:/u2/src/jboss/jboss-3.0.0RC2/server/default/deploy/jboss-timer-service.xml
23:02:32,681 INFO [MainDeployer] Successfully completed deployment of package: file:/u2/src/jboss/jboss-3.0.0RC2/server/default/deploy/jboss-timer-service.xml
