Enable and Configure the JMX Exporter Agent

Universal Messaging 10.11 | Operations Guide | Monitoring Containers | Enable and Configure the JMX Exporter Agent

Updatе the jmx_sag_um_exporter File when Applying Fixes

When you start a Universal Messaging realm instance, the JMX Exporter agent is not running by default. To enable the agent, you must modify the Server_Common.conf file or Custom_Server_Common.conf file in the Software AG_directory \UniversalMessaging\server\instance_name\bin directory, which refer to the jmx_exporter.yaml file.

To enable the JMX Exporter agent

1. Open Server_Common.conf in a text editor and search for the line referring to the JMX Exporter agent. The line looks similar to this:

wrapper.java.additional.<n>=
-javaagent:<path1>/jmx_prometheus_javaagent.jar=0.0.0.0:9200:
<path2>/jmx_exporter.yaml

2. If the line is commented out, uncomment it.

3. Restart the Universal Messaging realm instance.

In addition, you can find more information and examples about how to configure the JMX Exporter Agent with Universal Messaging on GitHub at: https://github.com/SoftwareAG/universalmessaging-prometheus-jmx-exporter-config.
