Goals

The goals of the IronJacamar RHQ plugin is to provide a RHQ 4 plugin for the IronJacamar container which exposes the metrics and operations of the deployed resource adapters.

Second, it is to provide a RHQ platform for the standalone IronJacamar distribution using the GWT based user interface as the new management UI.

Design

Implementation

The management integration with IronJacamar must be built based on the

org.jboss.jca.core.api.management

package. A

org.jboss.jca.core.api.management.ManagementRepository

instance must be injected into the RHQ plugin in order to etablish the connection between the plugin and the container.

Code

To build rhq plugin for IronJacamar:

svn co http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/jbossas/projects/jboss-jca/trunk/ jboss-jca

cd jboss-jca

ant rhq

Supported metrics and operations
