I'm not clear on whether you're trying to access the DistributedReplicantManager service remotely or if you're looking for something else. Here's an example of how to use the DRM service remotely in JBoss 4.0.5. Note that your remote client will need various JBoss jars on its classpath. You'll get runtime errors on your client until the classpath is set properly. // method 1 - using JBoss RMIAdaptor //RMIAdaptor server1 = (RMIAdaptor)ic.lookup("jmx/invoker/RMIAdaptor"); //System.out.println("MBean count=" + server1.getMBeanCount()); // method 2 - using javax.management in JDK 1.5, same object type is returned in JBossAS MBeanServerConnection server2 = (MBeanServerConnection)ic.lookup("jmx/invoker/RMIAdaptor"); System.out.println("MBean count=" + server2.getMBeanCount()); ObjectName clusterService = new ObjectName("jboss:partitionName=DefaultPartition,service=DistributedReplicantManager"); String drm_content = (String)server2.invoke(clusterService, "listContent", null, null); System.out.println(drm_content); View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4027669#...
