JBoss
The JBoss plugin allows you to monitor a number of metrics that provide insight into the performance of your application server. If you can not find this plugin in the /usr/lib/panopta-agent/plugins folder, then your version of the Agent is out of date and you should update it to gain access to this feature.
Agent Configuration
Once the Agent is installed you will need to add the following information to the agent config file (/etc/fm-agent/fm_agent.cfg):
[jboss]
username = <your_provided_user_name>
password = <your_provided_password>
console_url = http://localhost:999
You will need to use the username and password you use to login to your JBoss console URL. After making this change give the agent a few minutes to connect with FortiMonitor’s servers, then you should see new server resources available to add for your server in the control panel.
Control Panel Configuration
If you have not already, read the Add FortiMonitor Agent checks article to learn how to set up monitoring for any Agent plugin. Select JBoss from the monitoring catalog.
