Exposing custom mbean to JON

[garethahealy]

I am trying to expose a custom MBean from JBoss Fuse (mbeans-expose-context.xml) to JON. When using JConsole, i can see the MBean, so thats all working fine.

I've then created a simple plugin (rhq-plugin.xml) and deployed it. But it never shows up in JON.

I am expecting to to be shown under the tree @ localhost -> JBoss Fuse Containers -> Container -> Simple MBeans

Can anyone see what i am doing wrong...

I don't see anything visibly wrong unless the mbean name is not correct.  Are you sure that the plugin deployed correctly?   Any errors?  Does it show up in the agent plugins list in the Administration view via the GUI?   Are you sure it was updated on the agent?  A newly deployed plugin on the server does not get updated immediately on a running agent.  Restarting the agent, or executing the "Update All Plugins" operation is required for an on-demand update.

So looking through the logs, i can see the plugin has been deployed correctly (agent.log):

This is probably because that plugin is missing. Resource Type [{SimpleMBeans}SimpleMBeans Service] will not have that missing type as a possible parent.

I then also spotted the below:

The key lines being:

(org.rhq.plugins.jmx.MBeanResourceDiscoveryComponent)- Discovering MBean resources with object name query template: com.garethahealy:beans=whiteboard-mbeans-expose-context,type=beans,name=PoolCounter
(org.rhq.plugins.jmx.MBeanResourceDiscoveryComponent)- Found [0] mbeans for query [com.garethahealy:beans=whiteboard-mbeans-expose-context,type=beans,name=PoolCounter].

So i presume what is happening, is that its not looking at the correct JMX URL, thus fails to find my mbean. i.e.: not the fuse one accessed via: service:jmx:rmi://192.168.0.14:44445/jndi/rmi://192.168.0.14:1100/karaf-esb-uk

So the question is, how do i do that? should i be using the 'FuseMBeanDiscoveryComponent' and add a lib dependancy to the core fuse libs, much like how the camel context plugin works?

[garethahealy]

Ignore the above. The logs for the fuse container, are for the wrong container, thats why it shows 0 found. Its working, as i've just spotted the tree node. I hadn't made any code changes, i presume the agent just needed a force restart (which i did this morning).
