Re: [wildfly-dev] Is JMX Needed in Core?

I'll check if we did. We're looking into releasing the code we built to expose the metrics, but we have to get approvals and it's taking a while. Perhaps my thoughts are out of scope for the one conversation I decided to jump into. :) But, I do like having JMX available in the full dist and enabling the modules in the provisioning tool. That sounds appealing irrespective of the trouble we had grabbing various metrics once we got JMX working. JMX has felt a bit like an afterthought with wildfly.
