[Hawkular-dev] BTM agent relationship with Hawkular agent

Hi On the team call just now, Heiko raised a question about whether the BTM agent could work with the Hawkular agent. So thought I would start this discussion thread to see what the potential options are. I currently see two issues: 1) The BTM agent must be configured on the jvm command line as a "-javaagent" to install ByteMan for instrumentation purposes. This is instantiated before the JBoss modules (and therefore subsystems etc) are initialised. 2) The hawkular agent won't necessarily be installed in all monitored servers, and instead remotely monitor some. The BTM agent would need to be installed in all servers where business transactions are executing. One type of integration that may be possible is in terms of delivering the captured business transaction information to the backend? i.e. the BTM agent locally reports it to the Hawkular agent as a relay? Thoughts? Regards Gary
