Remote JMX

by Mike Christianson

The following Java system properties allow unauthenticated and unsecured remote JMX client connections. I use these system properties when remotely troubleshooting problems during development.  My JMX agent of choice is JConsole, part of the JDK.

-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=port
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false

For further details on JMX and how to configure access, consult Sun’s Java JMX Management Guide.
