JBoss EAP 5.0.0 - Number of active sessions across multiple WARs

[jesse.hazen]

Hello,

Is there any simple way to obtain the total number of active sessions on a container? The container in question will have multiple .war files deployed, for example:

/AppA

/AppB

/AppC

with the knowledge that more .war files will be added in the future.

I know I can obtain (from JMX console) the number of active sessions from:

jboss.web -> host=localhost,path=/AppA,type=Manager -> ActiveSessionCount

This works fine but as we have several apps (and more to come) it'd be nice if there was a Tomcat Server level count of active sessions registered on the instance. If not I know I can script this but if there is already some variable set somewhere in JMX it'd be great to know. Particularly because app's will be added sporadically over time and instead of modifying my script each time I'd love to just pull total sessions from somewhere.

Thanks in advance for any help/pointers!

Sorry to bump, but anyone have any thoughts on this? I haven't been able to find any items in the JMX console for obtaining this data, and was hoping to avoid a script that would need to be modified for each newly deployed app. I could use perl/LWP to navigate the JMX console and regex for all deployed apps, too, but that's also kinda nasty.

Anyway I appreciate any thoughts! Thanks in advance!

any idea of JOPR or JON have (they should) a plug in available that monitors apache that you may be able to pull this information from?

possible anything via SNMP?

I will do some more poking around

Thanks Paul. Havent really pursued the SNMP path yet. Might be something there but again I'd need to aggregate the data so I'd still need to write a script that would need to be updated continually as more webapps are deployed.

As far as jopr/JON go, I don't think there is anything there. I took a quick look, so I'll look again to see.
