Overview of the vFabric SQLFire JMX Agent
The SQLFire JMX Agent provides administrative and operational monitoring along with additional functionality
such as health monitoring. You can use the JMX Agent to perform the following management tasks.
View the distributed system and its settings.
View distributed system members.
View and modify conguration attributes.
View runtime system and application statistics.
View query and application statistics.
Monitor the health of a vFabric SQLFire system and its components.
A JMX Agent runs as a separate distributed system member, and can manage only a single distributed system.
The JMX Agent uses connectors that are specied by JMX Remote v1.0. For information about JMX, see
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/tech/javamanagement-140525.html.
Example Configuration
This gure shows a sample conguration in which the JMX agent connects applications to a vFabric SQLFire
distributed system. The architecture includes the following components.
Client applications that connect to the JMX Agent via HTTP or RMI.
A set of connectors and adapters that allow clients to contact and interact with the MBeans in the JMX Agent s
MBean server. See Conguring JMX Connectors and Adapters on page 286.
A set of SQLFire JMX MBeans that are used to manage the admin distributed system. See vFabric SQLFire
MBeans on page 288.
