Application Monitoring Software 2004-06-30 - By Finn, Michael

Sure, it's possible to use JMX, but it's kind of hammer and chisel, since you
are probably going to need to write just about everything (esp with JMX
monitoring and notification services). Anyone know of a framework already
written around JMX for this kind of thing? I think some of it is coming in JDK
1.5 (aka 5.0).
I've seen a couple neat things on the floor @ JavaOne this week, but they are
targeted toward a J2EE environment (Quest had a very slick dashboard-type
display), so they may not fit the bill for you.
We use Nagios (formerly Netsaint) for our solution. It's very flexible. We have
a special JSP page that takes rqst args in a query string and serves as kind of
a service-inspector based on the args. If the service check fails, we just
return a 500, which Nagios (http plugin) sees as a failure and pages out an
alert. I can elaborate more if you're interested. It's not rocket science, but
we didn't feel like spending 6 figures for something to send a page when a
service becomes unavailable.

There is one way people can write an application using
JMX for monitoring Java software, more info in
