JVM File Descriptors Test
This test reports useful statistics pertaining to file descriptors.
Target of the test : A Java Application
Agent deploying the test : An internal/remote agent
Outputs of the test : One set of results for the Java application being monitored.
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
|
Test Period |
How often should the test be executed. |
|
Host |
The IP address of the host for which this test is to be configured. |
|
Port |
The port at which the specified host listens. By default, this is NULL. |
|
JMX Port |
This parameter appears only if the Measure Mode is set to JMX. Here, specify the port at which the JMX listens for requests from remote hosts. Ensure that you specify the same port that you configured in the management.properties file in the <JAVA_HOME>\jre\lib\management folder used by the target application |
|
JNDIName |
This parameter appears only if the Measure Mode is set to JMX. The JNDIName is a lookup name for connecting to the JMX connector. By default, this is JMXRMI. If you have registered the JMX connector in the RMI registry using a different lookup name, then you can change this default value to reflect the same. |
|
User, Password, |
These parameters appear only if the Measure Mode is set to JMX. If JMX requires authentication only (but no security), then ensure that the User and Password parameters are configured with the credentials of a user with read-write access to JMX. To know how to create this user, refer to the |
