| Contents | Previous | Next | Java Management Extensions (JMX) Technology Tutorial |
The Java Management Extensions (JMX) specification defines three bindings to lookup services, using existing lookup technologies, as described in the following sections:
The lookup services allow JMX technology clients to find and connect to connector servers that have registered with the lookup services.
As shown simply in Section 3.1 "Accessing Standard and Dynamic MBeans via the RMI Connector", if you are using remote method invocation (RMI) connectors, you can choose to use an external directory to register the connector server stubs you want to look up. The following cases are presented in the lookup service examples relating to RMI connectors:
If you choose to register the RMI connector stubs in an external directory, some initial configuration is required, to set up your RMI registry, CORBA naming service or LDAP server. If you do not use an external directory, the RMI connector stub is encoded into the JMX service URL.
The following sections describe the external directories that you can use in conjunction with the lookup service examples that use RMI connectors. These external directories are referred to when running the three examples of lookup services that are given in the subsequent sections in this chapter.
To register the RMI connector server stubs in an external RMI registry, for use by connectors implementing the JRMP transport, perform the following actions:
As was the case in Chapter 3, "JMX Connectors", the RMI registry is used to store the RMI connector stubs for RMI connectors implementing the JRMP transport.
$ rmiregistry 9999 &
To shorten the commands that you will type when you run the examples, set the service URL for the RMI registry as an environment variable, jndirmi. In these examples, the service URL is given in JNDI form. See the API documentation for the javax.management.remote.rmi package for an explanation of JNDI form. If you want to run the external directories on a machine other than the local machine, you must specify that machine’s host name instead of localhost.
$ jndirmi="rmi://localhost:9999"
To register the RMI connector server stubs in an external CORBA naming service, for use by connectors implementing the IIOP transport, perform the following actions:
RMI connectors that implement the IIOP transport can use CORBA naming to identify the RMI connector stub.
$ orbd -ORBInitialPort 7777 &
To shorten the commands that you type when you run the examples, set the service URL for the CORBA naming service as an environment variable, jndiiiop. In these examples, the service URL is given in JNDI form. If you want to run the external directories on a machine other than the local machine, you must specify that machine’s host name instead of localhost.
$ jndiiiop="iiop://localhost:7777"
To register the RMI connector server stubs in an external LDAP registry, for use by connectors implementing either of the JRMP or IIOP transports, perform the following actions:
The LDAP server you use is your choice, although the schema for representing Java objects in an LDAP directory must be known to the server. See the relevant Request For Comments (RFC) document for details:
These examples require that you create the following domain component suffix:
dc=Test
See the documentation accompanying your LDAP server for details of how to configure the server and create this suffix.
These variables are used to shorten the commands you type when starting the Server and Client classes in the lookup service examples that register RMI connector stubs in the external LDAP server.
$ ldaphost=ldap_host
$ ldapport=ldap_port
$ principal=”cn=Directory Manager”
Supply the password for your LDAP server.
$ credentials=your_ldap_password
In this example, the service URL for the LDAP server is given in JNDI form and is identified by the variable jndildap.
$ jndildap="ldap://$ldaphost:$ldapport"
The JMX technology specifies how to register RMI connectors with the SLP lookup service.
The purpose of this example is to demonstrate how a JMX Remote API connector client can find and connect to a connector server that has registered with the SLP lookup service. This example performs the following operations:
/usr/share/lib/slp. If you are not running the Solaris operating environment, you must obtain a version of SLP that is compliant with RFC 2614, section 5. You can download the OpenSLP Java implementation from .
The SLP lookup example is contained in the directory work_dir/jmx_examples/Lookup/slp.
/jmx_examples/Lookup/slp.Inside this directory, you will find the following files:
*.java files in a text editor.These classes will be analyzed in the following sections.
The following sections analyze each of the classes used in the SLP lookup example, and explain how they perform the operations described above.
Server.java and Client.java to import your version of the SLP Java classes instead of the com.sun.slp package. See RFC 2614, section 5.
Due to its size, the SLP lookup service Server.java class is shown as a series of code excerpts. For explanations of the SLP code used in this example, see RFC 2614 and the API documentation for SLP.
public class Server { public final static int JMX_DEFAULT_LEASE = 300; public final static String JMX_SCOPE = "DEFAULT"; private final MBeanServer mbs; public Server() { mbs = MBeanServerFactory.createMBeanServer(); } [...]
CODE EXAMPLE 4-1 sets the default SLP lease JMX_DEFAULT_LEASE to a default lease of 300 seconds, corresponding to the length of time the URL will be registered, and shows the initial creation of the MBean server mbs.
In code that is not shown here, you then define an SLP advertiser slpAdvertiser, and an SLP service URL url. The slpAdvertiser is used to register the service URL in the SLP lookup service. The SCOPE and the agentName are registered in SLP as lookup attributes.
[...] public static void register(JMXServiceURL jmxUrl, String name) throws ServiceLocationException { ServiceURL serviceURL = new ServiceURL(jmxUrl.toString(), JMX_DEFAULT_LEASE); debug("ServiceType is: " + serviceURL.getServiceType()); Vector attributes = new Vector(); Vector attrValues = new Vector(); attrValues.add(JMX_SCOPE); ServiceLocationAttribute attr1 = new ServiceLocationAttribute("SCOPE", attrValues); attributes.add(attr1); attrValues.removeAllElements(); attrValues.add(name); ServiceLocationAttribute attr2 = new ServiceLocationAttribute("AgentName", attrValues); attributes.add(attr2); final Advertiser slpAdvertiser = ServiceLocationManager.getAdvertiser(Locale.US); slpAdvertiser.register(serviceURL, attributes); } [...]
CODE EXAMPLE 4-2 shows the registration of the JMX connector server’s URL with the SLP lookup service.
The JMX service URL jmxUrl is the address of the connector server, and is obtained by a call to the getAddress() method of JMXConnectorServer when the connector server is started.
The SLP lookup attributes, namely the scope and the agent name under which the connector server address is to be registered (name), are then specified by the SLP class ServiceLocationAttribute. The AgentName attribute is mandatory, but other optional attributes, such as ProtocolType, AgentHost, and Property can also be registered in the SLP lookup service.
Finally, the JMX connector server address is registered in the SLP service with a call to the register() method of the Advertiser interface, with the serviceURL and the attributes passed in as parameters.
[...] public JMXConnectorServer rmi(String url) throws IOException, JMException, NamingException, ClassNotFoundException, ServiceLocationException { JMXServiceURL jurl = new JMXServiceURL(url); final HashMap env = new HashMap(); // Environment map attributes [...] JMXConnectorServer rmis = JMXConnectorServerFactory.newJMXConnectorServer(jurl, env, mbs); final String agentName = System.getProperty("agent.name", "DefaultAgent"); start(rmis, agentName); return rmis; } [...]
CODE EXAMPLE 4-3 shows the creation of an RMI connector server. The JMX service URL jurl is constructed from the string url that is included in the command used to launch the Server at the command line. An RMI connector server named rmis is then created with the system properties defined by the environment map and the address jurl.
The connector server is then started, and the RMI connector server address is registered in the SLP lookup service under the name agentName.
[...] public void start(JMXConnectorServer server, String agentName) throws IOException, ServiceLocationException { server.start(); final JMXServiceURL address = server.getAddress(); register(address,agentName); } [...]
CODE EXAMPLE 4-4 shows the launching of the connector server server and the registration of server in the SLP lookup service with the given address address.
The SLP lookup service Client.java class is shown in CODE EXAMPLE 4-5, CODE EXAMPLE 4-6, and CODE EXAMPLE 4-7:
public class Client { public final static String JMX_SCOPE = "DEFAULT"; public static Locator getLocator() throws ServiceLocationException { final Locator slpLocator = ServiceLocationManager.getLocator(Locale.US); return slpLocator; } public static List lookup(Locator slpLocator, String name) throws IOException, ServiceLocationException { final ArrayList list = new ArrayList(); Vector scopes = new Vector(); scopes.add(JMX_SCOPE); String query = "(&(AgentName=" + ((name!=null)?name:"*") + "))"; ServiceLocationEnumeration result = slpLocator.findServices(new ServiceType("service:jmx"), scopes, query); while(result.hasMoreElements()) { final ServiceURL surl = (ServiceURL) result.next(); JMXServiceURL jmxUrl = new JMXServiceURL(surl.toString()); try { JMXConnector client = JMXConnectorFactory.newJMXConnector(jmxUrl,null); if (client != null) list.add(client); } catch (IOException x ) { [...] } } } return list; }
CODE EXAMPLE 4-5 first of all obtains the SLP service Locator by calling the getLocator method of the SLP class ServiceLocationManager. Client then retrieves all the connector servers registered in the SLP service under a given agent name, or under agent names that match a certain pattern. If no agent name is specified when the Client is started, all agent names will be considered.
A JMX technology service URL, jmxUrl, is generated for each of the agents retrieved by SLP, with each agent’s SLP service URL, surl, passed as a parameter into the JMXServiceURL instance. The URL jmxUrl is then passed to the newJMXConnector() method of JMXConnectorFactory, to create a new connector client named client for each agent that is registered in the SLP service.
The connector clients retrieved are stored in an array list called list.
public static void listMBeans(MBeanServerConnection server) throws IOException { final Set names = server.queryNames(null,null); for (final Iterator i=names.iterator(); i.hasNext(); ) { ObjectName name = (ObjectName)i.next(); System.out.println("Got MBean: "+name); try { MBeanInfo info = server.getMBeanInfo((ObjectName)name); MBeanAttributeInfo[] attrs = info.getAttributes(); if (attrs == null) continue; for (int j=0; j<attrs.length; j++) { try { Object o = server.getAttribute(name,attrs[j].getName()); System.out.println("\t\t" + attrs[j].getName() + " = "+o); } catch (Exception x) { System.err.println("JmxClient failed to get " + attrs[j].getName() + x); x.printStackTrace(System.err); } } }
In CODE EXAMPLE 4-6, a reference to the MBeanServerConnection is retrieved for every connector client that is created from the connector server address stored in the SLP service. A list of all the MBeans and their attributes is retrieved.
public static void main(String[] args) { try { final String agentName = System.getProperty("agent.name"); final Locator slpLocator = getLocator(); List l = lookup(slpLocator,agentName); int j = 1; for (Iterator i=l.iterator();i.hasNext();j++) { JMXConnector c1 = (JMXConnector) i.next(); if (c1 != null) { try { c1.connect(env); } catch (IOException x) { System.err.println ("Connection failed: " + x); x.printStackTrace(System.err); continue; } MBeanServerConnection conn = c1.getMBeanServerConnection(); try { listMBeans(conn); } catch (IOException x) { x.printStackTrace(System.err); } try { c1.close(); } catch (IOException x) { x.printStackTrace(System.err); } } } } catch (Exception x) { x.printStackTrace(System.err); } }
In CODE EXAMPLE 4-7, the agent.name property is retrieved by calling the getProperty() method of the System class, and the SLP lookup service is found by calling the getLocator() method of Locator.
All the agents named agentName are then looked up, and connections are made to the agents discovered. If no agent is specified, then all agents are lookup up. Connections are made to the MBean server created by Server, and all the MBeans in it are listed, before the connection is closed down.
In addition to the actions you performed in Section 4.1 "Initial Configuration", before you can run the lookup service examples that use the SLP, you must perform some further initial actions that are specific to this example. You can then start looking up connectors using SLP in conjunction with the two connectors supported by the JMX technology.
When you run the examples, to help you keep track of which agent has been created with which transport, the agent names include a letter suffix that is the same as the lettering of the corresponding section. For example, the agent from Section a. "RMI connector over JRMP, without an external directory" is called test-server-a.
The following steps are required by all of the different transports you can run in this example.
In addition to the common environment variables that were set in Section 4.1 "Initial Configuration", you need to add the path to the SLP service. If you are using the Solaris operating environment, add the following variable:
$ SLPLIB=/usr/share/lib/slp
If you are using another platform, set SLPLIB appropriately for the platform you are using.
classp environment variable.This example requires a classpath that includes the Java archive (JAR) files for SLP.
$ classp=$SLPLIB/slp.jar
Client and Server classes.Type the following command:
$ javac -d . -classpath $classp Server.java Client.java
If you are using the Solaris operating environment, type the following command, which requires you to know your super user password:
$ su root -c "java -cp $SLPLIB/slpd.jar com.sun.slp.slpd &"
Password: [type superuser password]
If you are not running a Solaris system, start the SLP daemon according to the implementation of SLP you are using.
This example demonstrates the use of the SLP lookup service to look up RMI connector servers that use RMI’s default transport, JRMP, as well as the IIOP transport. In addition, as described in Section 4.1 "Initial Configuration", different external directories are used to register the RMI connector stubs.
The combinations of transports and external directories demonstrated here are:
Perform the following steps to run the example:
Server.
The command you use to start the Server varies according to which external directory you are using. You can start one or more of the following instances of Server with different transports and external registries before starting the Client.
Start Server by typing the following command:
$ java -classpath .:$classp -Ddebug=true \ -Dagent.name=test-server-a \ -Durl ="service:jmx:rmi://" \ slp.Server &
In this command:
debug is set to true to provide more complete screen output when the Server runstest-server-aWhen Server is launched, you will see confirmation of the creation of the RMI connector, and the registration of its URL in the SLP service.
Start Server by typing the following command:
$ java -classpath .:$classp -Ddebug=true \ -Dagent.name=test-server-b \ -Durl="service:jmx:rmi:///jndi/${jndirmi}/server" \ slp.Server &
In this command:
test-server-b
When Server is launched, you will see confirmation of the creation of the RMI connector, and the registration of its URL in the SLP service.
Start Server by typing the following command:
$ java -classpath .:$classp -Ddebug=true \ -Dagent.name=test-server-c \ -Durl="service:jmx:rmi:///jndi/${jndildap}/cn=x,dc=Test" \ -Djava.naming.security.principal="$principal" \ -Djava.naming.security.credentials="$credentials" \ slp.Server &
In this command:
test-server-cjndildap in Section 4.1 "Initial Configuration". Test domain component in the LDAP server. principal and password credentials are given to gain access to the LDAP server.
When Server is launched, you will see confirmation of the creation of the RMI connector, and the registration of its URL in the SLP service under the agent name test-server-c.
Start Server by typing the following command:
$ java -classpath .:$classp -Ddebug=true \ -Dagent.name=test-server-d \ -Durl="service:jmx:iiop://" \ slp.Server &
In this command:
test-server-d
When the Server is launched, you will see confirmation of the creation of the RMI connector, and the registration of its automatically generated URL in the SLP service.
Start Server by typing the following command:
$ java -classpath .:$classp -Ddebug=true \ -Dagent.name=test-server-e \ -Durl="service:jmx:iiop:///jndi/${jndiiiop}/server" \ slp.Server &
In this command:
test-server-eserver is stored is the CORBA naming service you identified as jndiiiop in Section 4.1 "Initial Configuration"
When Server is launched, you will see confirmation of the creation of the RMI connector, and the registration of its URL in the SLP service under the name test-server-e.
Start Server by typing the following command:
$ java -classpath .:$classp -Ddebug=true \ -Dagent.name=test-server-f \ -Durl="service:jmx:iiop:///jndi/${jndildap}/cn=x,dc=Test" \ -Djava.naming.security.principal="$principal" \ -Djava.naming.security.credentials="$credentials" \ slp.Server &
In this command:
test-server-fjndildap in Section 4.1 "Initial Configuration". Test domain component in the LDAP server. principal and password credentials are given to gain access to the LDAP server. When Server is launched, you will see confirmation of the creation of the RMI connector, and the registration of its URL in the SLP service under the agent name test-server-f.
Client.
After starting the Server using the transport and external directory of your choice, start the Client:
$ java -classpath .:$classp -Ddebug=true \
-Djava.naming.security.principal="$principal" \
-Djava.naming.security.credentials="$credentials" \
slp.Client
You will see output confirming the detection of the agents created by the Server and registered in the lookup service. You will also see the identification and confirmation of the connection made to the agents.
To look up a specific agent, type the following command:
$ java -classpath .:$classp -Ddebug=true \ -Djava.naming.security.principal="$principal" \ -Djava.naming.security.credentials="$credentials" \ -Dagent.name="agentName" \ slp.Client
In the command shown above, agentName is the name of the agent you want to look up. You can also specify a partial agent name by using *; for example, x* for all agent names beginning with the letter x.
The purpose of this example is to demonstrate how a JMX technology connector client can find and connect to a connector server that has registered with the Jini lookup service. This example performs the following operations:
The Jini lookup service example is contained in the directory work_dir/jmx_examples/Lookup/jini.
/jmx_examples/Lookup/jini directory.Inside this directory, you will find the following files:
These classes will be analyzed in the following sections.
The following sections analyze each of the classes used in the Jini lookup service example, and explain how they perform the operations described above.
Due to its size, the Jini lookup service Server.java class is shown as a series of code excerpts.
public class Server { private final MBeanServer mbs; private static boolean debug = false; public Server() { mbs = MBeanServerFactory.createMBeanServer(); } [...]
CODE EXAMPLE 4-8 shows the creation of an MBean server mbs. As was the case for the SLP examples, the JMX service URL and the agent name are passed to Server when it is launched at the command line.
[...] public JMXConnectorServer rmi(String url) throws IOException, JMException, ClassNotFoundException { JMXServiceURL jurl = new JMXServiceURL(url); final HashMap env = new HashMap(); // Environment map attributes [...] JMXConnectorServer rmis = JMXConnectorServerFactory.newJMXConnectorServer(jurl, env, mbs); final String agentName = System.getProperty("agent.name", "DefaultAgent"); start(rmis,env,agentName); return rmis; } [...]
CODE EXAMPLE 4-9 shows the creation of an RMI connector server named rmis, using the system properties defined by the environment map env and the address jurl.
The RMI connector server rmis is started. The RMI connector server address is registered in the Jini lookup service under the name agentName.
[...] public void start(JMXConnectorServer server, Map env, String agentName) throws IOException, ClassNotFoundException { server.start(); final ServiceRegistrar registrar=getRegistrar(); final JMXConnector proxy = server.toJMXConnector(env); register(registrar,proxy,agentName); } public static ServiceRegistrar getRegistrar() throws IOException, ClassNotFoundException, MalformedURLException { final String jurl = System.getProperty("jini.lookup.url","jini://localhost"); final LookupLocator lookup = new LookupLocator(jurl); final ServiceRegistrar registrar = lookup.getRegistrar(); if (registrar instanceof Administrable) debug("Registry is administrable."); return registrar; } public static ServiceRegistration register(ServiceRegistrar registrar, JMXConnector proxy, String name) throws IOException { Entry[] serviceAttrs = new Entry[] { new net.jini.lookup.entry.Name(name) }; System.out.println("Registering proxy: AgentName=" + name ); debug("" + proxy); ServiceItem srvcItem = new ServiceItem(null, proxy, serviceAttrs); ServiceRegistration srvcRegistration = registrar.register(srvcItem, Lease.ANY); debug("Registered ServiceID: " + srvcRegistration.getServiceID().toString()); return srvcRegistration; } [...]
CODE EXAMPLE 4-10 shows the creation of a connector server named server with the environment map env and the service URL jurl. The connector server instance server then gets a pointer to the Jini lookup service by calling the Jini lookup service method LookupLocator.getRegistrar().
The connector server is registered in the Jini lookup service in the form of a proxy, using the Jini lookup service locator registrar and the agent name under which the connector server will be registered. The proxy is in fact a client stub for the connector server, obtained by a call to the toJMXConnector() method of JMXConnectorServer.
The registration itself is performed by a call to the register() method of the Jini lookup service class ServiceRegistrar, with an array of service items.
The Jini lookup service example class Client.java is shown in CODE EXAMPLE 4-11.
public class Client { private static boolean debug = false; public static ServiceRegistrar getRegistrar() throws IOException, ClassNotFoundException, MalformedURLException { final String jurl = System.getProperty("jini.lookup.url","jini://localhost"); final LookupLocator lookup = new LookupLocator(jurl); final ServiceRegistrar registrar = lookup.getRegistrar(); if (registrar instanceof Administrable) debug("Registry is administrable."); return registrar; } public static List lookup(ServiceRegistrar registrar, String name) throws IOException { final ArrayList list = new ArrayList(); final Class[] classes = new Class[] {JMXConnector.class}; final Entry[] serviceAttrs = new Entry[] { new net.jini.lookup.entry.Name(name) }; ServiceTemplate template = new ServiceTemplate(null,classes,serviceAttrs); ServiceMatches matches = registrar.lookup(template, Integer.MAX_VALUE); for(int i = 0; i < matches.totalMatches; i++) { debug("Found Service: " + matches.items[i].serviceID); if (debug) { if (matches.items[i].attributeSets != null) { final Entry[] attrs = matches.items[i].attributeSets; for (int j = 0; j < attrs.length ; j++) { debug("Attribute["+j+"]=" + attrs[j]); } } } if(matches.items[i].service != null) { JMXConnector c = (JMXConnector)(matches.items[i].service); debug("Found a JMXConnector: " + c); list.add(c); } } return list; } [...]
CODE EXAMPLE 4-11 shows how the connector client obtains a pointer to the Jini lookup service with a call to lookup.getRegistrar(). The client then obtains the list of the connectors registered as entries in the Jini lookup service with the agent name name. Unlike in the SLP example, the agent name you pass to Client when it is launched must be either an exact match of an existing agent name, or null, in which case the Jini lookup service will look up all the agents.
Once the list of connectors has been obtained, in code that is not shown here, the client connects to the MBean server started by Server, and retrieves the list of all the MBeans registered in it.
The java.policy file is a Java technology security policy file, configured for this example.
A template Jini networking technology properties file, to be configured for this example. Change @INSTALL_HOME_FOR_JINI@ and rename the file to jini.properties.
In addition to the actions you performed in Section 4.1 "Initial Configuration", before you can run the lookup service examples that use the Jini lookup service, you must perform some further initial actions that are specific to this example. You can then start looking up connectors using the Jini network technology, in conjunction with the connector supported by the JMX technology.
When you run the examples, to help you keep track of which agent has been created with which transport, the agent names include a letter suffix that is the same as the lettering of the corresponding section. For example, the agent from Section a. "RMI connector over JRMP, without an external directory." is called test-server-a.
The following steps are required by all of the different transports you can run in this example.
In addition to the common environment variables that you set in Section 4.1 "Initial Configuration" you can add the path to the Jini lookup service. The directory where you have installed the Jini networking technology is referred to as jini_dir.
$ JINI_HOME=jini_dir
$ JINILIB=$JINI_HOME/lib
classp environment variable.This example requires the JAR files for the Jini lookup services core and extensions.
$ classp=$JINILIB/jini-core.jar:$JINILIB/jini-ext.jar
jini.properties file.A properties file for UNIX platforms is provided in the same directory as the classes for this example. If you are not running a UNIX platform, you can obtain a properties file for your platform in the following directory:
$JINI_HOME/example/launcher/jini12_<platform>.properties
jini.properties file.You must complete the file to include all the necessary paths, host names and port numbers for your system. Even if you are not running a UNIX platform, you can use the template provided as a guide.
StartService.
$ java -cp $JINILIB/jini-examples.jar com.sun.jini.example.launcher.StartService &
This will open the StartService graphical user interface.

Click on ‘File’, ‘Open Property File’ and then select your properties file from within work_dir/jmx_examples/Lookup/jini.
Start the required Jini lookup services by clicking on the ‘Run’ tab and then pressing the ‘START’ button for each of the following:
You will see confirmation that the services are running.
Client and Server classes.Type the following command:
$ javac -d . -classpath $classp Server.java Client.java
This example demonstrates the use of the Jini lookup service to look up RMI connector servers that use RMI’s default transport, JRMP, as well as the IIOP transport. In addition, as described in Section 4.1 "Initial Configuration", different external directories are used to register the RMI connector stubs.
The combinations of transports and external directories demonstrated here are:

When Server is launched, you will see confirmation of the creation of the RMI connector, and the registration of its URL in the Jini lookup service under the agent name test-server-f.
Client.
After starting the Server using the transport and external directory of your choice, start the Client:
You will see output confirming the detection of the agents created by the Server and registered in the lookup service. You will also see the identification and confirmation of the connection made to the agents.
To look up a specific agent, you can do so by typing the following command:
$ java -classpath .:$classp -Ddebug=true \ -Djava.security.policy=java.policy \ -Dagent.name=agentName \ jini.Client
In the command shown above, agentName is the name of the agent you want to look up. You can also specify a partial agent name by using *; for example, x* for all agent names beginning with the letter x.
JMX technology allows you to register RMI connectors with a JNDI lookup service using an LDAP registry as a back end. This example performs the following operations:
The JNDI/LDAP lookup example is contained in the directory work_dir/jmx_examples/Lookup/ldap.
/jmx_examples/Lookup/ldap directory.Inside this directory, you will find the following files:
These classes will be analyzed in the following sections.
The following sections analyze each of the classes used in the JNDI/LDAP lookup service example, and explain how they perform the operations described above.
Due to its size, the JNDI/LDAP lookup service Server.java class is shown as a series of code excerpts.
[...] public class Server { public final static int JMX_DEFAULT_LEASE = 60; private static boolean debug = false; private final MBeanServer mbs; public Server() { mbs = MBeanServerFactory.createMBeanServer(); } public static DirContext getRootContext() throws NamingException { final Hashtable env = new Hashtable(); final String factory = System.getProperty(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory"); final String ldapServerUrl = System.getProperty(Context.PROVIDER_URL); final String ldapUser = System.getProperty(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, "cn=Directory Manager"); final String ldapPasswd = System.getProperty(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS); debug(Context.PROVIDER_URL + "=" + ldapServerUrl); debug(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL + "=" + ldapUser); if (debug) { System.out.print(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS + "="); final int len = (ldapPasswd==null)?0:ldapPasswd.length(); for (int i=0;i<len;i++) System.out.print("*"); System.out.println(); } env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,factory); env.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, ldapUser); if (ldapServerUrl != null) env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, ldapServerUrl); if (ldapPasswd != null) env.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, ldapPasswd); InitialContext root = new InitialLdapContext(env,null); return (DirContext)(root.lookup("")); } [...]
CODE EXAMPLE 4-12 shows the initial creation of an MBean server mbs, and the obtention of a pointer to the root context of the LDAP directory tree in which the connector server address is to be registered. All the relevant LDAP access variables, such as the provider URL, the LDAP user name and the security credentials, are given here and passed into the environment map env. The environment map env is then passed as a parameter into a call to InitialLdapContext, from which the initial LDAP context is obtained.
Code that is omitted from CODE EXAMPLE 4-12 retrieves the agent name under which the connector will be registered in the LDAP server.
[...] public static void register(DirContext root, JMXServiceURL jmxUrl, String name) throws NamingException, IOException { final String mydn = System.getProperty("dn","cn="+name); debug("dn: " + mydn ); Object o = null; try { o = root.lookup(mydn); } catch (NameNotFoundException n) { Attributes attrs = new BasicAttributes(); Attribute objclass = new BasicAttribute("objectClass"); objclass.add("top"); objclass.add("javaContainer"); objclass.add("jmxConnector"); attrs.put(objclass); attrs.put("jmxAgentName", name); o = root.createSubcontext(mydn,attrs); } if (o == null) throw new NameNotFoundException(); final Attributes attrs = root.getAttributes(mydn); final Attribute oc = attrs.get("objectClass"); if (!oc.contains("jmxConnector")) { final String msg = "The supplied node [" + mydn + "] does not contain the jmxConnector objectclass"; throw new NamingException(msg); } final Attributes newattrs = new BasicAttributes(); newattrs.put("jmxAgentName",name); newattrs.put("jmxServiceURL",jmxUrl.toString()); newattrs.put("jmxAgentHost",InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostName()); newattrs.put("jmxProtocolType",jmxUrl.getProtocol()); newattrs.put("jmxExpirationDate", getExpirationDate(JMX_DEFAULT_LEASE)); root.modifyAttributes(mydn,DirContext.REPLACE_ATTRIBUTE,newattrs); } [...]
CODE EXAMPLE 4-13 shows the registration of JMX connector server service URL in the LDAP directory. The DN where the URL will be registered can be passed on the command line through the dn System property, that is, -Ddn=mydn (see later the commands used start the server). If the dn System property is not specified, then you can use the DN: cn=name where name is the agentName. Naturally, this is not mandatory. The location where the URL is registered does not really matter, because the client code never uses that DN directly, but instead performs an LDAP search to find the nodes which have an auxiliary jmxConnector ObjectClass. What is important here is that each URL is registered in its own LDAP node. How to name these nodes is left to the LDAP administrator, who in this case is you. In this example, it is assumed that you have configured your LDAP server by creating a root context under which the node cn=name can be created, and that this root context has been passed to the LDAP initial context through the Context.PROVIDER_URL property (see CODE EXAMPLE 4-12).
The code shown in CODE EXAMPLE 4-13 checks whether the node in which you will register the server URL already exists. If it does not, you try to create it (this will fail if the parent node does not exist). Since the jmxConnector ObjectClass is a simple auxiliary class, you will use the javaContainer ObjectClass as structural class if you need to create a new context. Once again, this is completely optional. Any structural class to which the jmxConnector auxiliary class could be added would be acceptable. It then checks whether the node in which you will register the server already has the jmxConnector auxiliary class. If not, an exception is thrown.
At this point you are sure that the node in which you will register the URL exists, and has the appropriate jmxConnector auxiliary class. So you need only to replace the values of the attributes defined by JMX Remote API for LDAP lookup (see jmx-schema.txt):
jmxServiceUrl: contains the String form of the server URL, as obtained from server.getAddress() after the server was startedjmxAgentName: contains the JMX agent name jmxProtocolType: contains the JMX protocol type, as returned by jmxUrl.getProtocolType() jmxAgentHost: contains the name of the agent host jmxExpirationDate: contains the date at which the URL will be considered obsolete.[...] public JMXConnectorServer rmi(String url) throws IOException, JMException, NamingException, ClassNotFoundException { JMXServiceURL jurl = new JMXServiceURL(url); final HashMap env = new HashMap(); // Prepare the environment Map [...] JMXConnectorServer rmis = JMXConnectorServerFactory.newJMXConnectorServer(jurl, env, mbs); final String agentName = System.getProperty("agent.name", "DefaultAgent"); start(rmis,env,agentName); return rmis; } [...]
In CODE EXAMPLE 4-14, a new RMI connector server named rmis is created with the JMX service URL jurl and the appropriate LDAP properties passed to its environment map env. The connector server rmis is launched by calling JMXConnectorServer.start() and is registered in the LDAP server.
[...] public void start(JMXConnectorServer server, Map env, String agentName) throws IOException, NamingException { server.start(); final DirContext root=getRootContext(); final JMXServiceURL address = server.getAddress(); register(root,address,agentName); } [...]
CODE EXAMPLE 4-15 shows the creation of a JMX connector server server, the obtention of a pointer to the LDAP server root directory root and the creation of a URL for server named address. The root directory, the URL and an agent name are passed as parameters to register() and are registered in the LDAP server.
The JNDI/LDAP lookup service Client.java class is shown in CODE EXAMPLE 4-16.
[...] public class Client { private static boolean debug = false; public static void listAttributes(DirContext root, String dn) throws NamingException { final Attributes attrs = root.getAttributes(dn); System.out.println("dn: " + dn); System.out.println("attributes: " + attrs); } public static DirContext getRootContext() throws NamingException { final Hashtable env = new Hashtable(); // Prepare environment map [...] InitialContext root = new InitialLdapContext(env,null); return (DirContext)(root.lookup("")); } // Confirm URL has not expired [...] public static List lookup(DirContext root, String protocolType, String name) throws IOException, NamingException { final ArrayList list = new ArrayList(); String queryProtocol = (protocolType==null)?"":"(jmxProtocolType="+protocolType+")"; String query = "(&" + "(objectClass=jmxConnector) " + "(jmxServiceURL=*) " + queryProtocol + "(jmxAgentName=" + ((name!=null)?name:"*") + "))"; SearchControls ctrls = new SearchControls(); ctrls.setSearchScope(SearchControls.SUBTREE_SCOPE); final NamingEnumeration results = root.search("", query, ctrls); while (results.hasMore()) { final SearchResult r = (SearchResult) results.nextElement(); debug("Found node: " + r.getName()); final Attributes attrs = r.getAttributes(); final Attribute attr = attrs.get("jmxServiceURL"); if (attr == null) continue; final Attribute exp = attrs.get("jmxExpirationDate"); if ((exp != null) && hasExpired((String)exp.get())) { System.out.print(r.getName() + ": "); System.out.println("URL expired since: " + exp.get()); continue; } final String urlStr = (String)attr.get(); if (urlStr.length() == 0) continue; debug("Found URL: "+ urlStr); final JMXServiceURL url = new JMXServiceURL(urlStr); final JMXConnector conn = JMXConnectorFactory.newJMXConnector(url,null); list.add(conn); if (debug) listAttributes(root,r.getName()); } return list; } }
In CODE EXAMPLE 4-16, the Client firstly returns a pointer root to the LDAP directory DirContext, then it searches through the directory for object classes of the type jmxConnector. The service URL and expiry date attributes, attr and exp respectively, for the jmxConnector object classes are obtained, exp is checked to make sure that the URL has not expired and a call is made to JMXConnectorFactory to create a new connector conn. The connector conn is added to the list of connectors and is used to access the MBeans in the MBean server created by Server.
The jmx-schema.txt file is the LDAP schema file for the JMX Remote API.
The 60jmx-schema.ldif file is an ldif file corresponding to the LDAP schema file, jmx-schema.txt, for JMX technology. If you are using Sun ONE Directory Server, this file can be copied directly to the config/schema directory of the Sun ONE Directory Server (see Section 4.4.2.1 "Setting up the JNDI/LDAP Lookup Service Example").
In addition to the actions you performed in Section 4.1 "Initial Configuration", before you can run the lookup service examples that use the JNDI/LDAP lookup service, you must perform some further initial actions that are specific to this example. You can then start looking up connectors using the JNDI/LDAP network technology, in conjunction with the two connectors supported by the JMX technology.
When you run the examples, to help you keep track of which agent has been created with which transport, the agent names include a letter suffix that is the same as the lettering of the corresponding section. For example, the agent from Section a. "RMI connector over JRMP, without an external directory." is called test-server-a.
The following steps are required by all of the different connector/transport combinations you can run in this example.
Do this according to the type of LDAP server you are using.
schema directory.For example, if you are using Sun ONE Directory Server 5.0, you would type:
$ cp 60jmx-schema.ldif /var/ds5/slapd-<hostname>/config/schema
Otherwise, do this according to the type of LDAP server you are using.
Do this according to the type of LDAP server you are using.
Server will register its service URL.
You must provide the Server with the path to the domain component suffix dc=Test that you created in Section 4.1 "Initial Configuration".
$ provider="ldap://$ldaphost:$ldapport/dc=Test"
Client and Server classes.$ javac -d . Server.java Client.java
This example demonstrates the use of the JNDI/LDAP lookup service to look up RMI connector servers that use RMI’s default transport, JRMP, as well as the IIOP transport. In addition, as described in Section 4.1 "Initial Configuration", different external directories are used to register the RMI connector stubs.
The combinations of transports and external directories demonstrated here are:
Server.
The command you use to start the Server varies according to which external directory you are using. You can start one or more of the following instances of Server with different transports and external registries before starting the Client.
Start Server by typing the following command:
$ java -classpath . -Ddebug=true \ -Dagent.name=test-server-a \ -Durl="service:jmx:rmi://" \ -Djava.naming.provider.url="$provider" \ -Djava.naming.security.principal="$principal" \ -Djava.naming.security.credentials="$credentials" \ jndi.Server &
In this command:
debug is set to true to provide more complete screen output when the Server runs.test-server-a.provider, that points to the domain component suffix in which the agent will be registered, is given.principal and password credentials are given to gain access to the LDAP server.When Server is launched, you will see confirmation of the creation of the RMI connector, and the registration of its URL in the JNDI/LDAP lookup service.

In this command:
test-server-d.provider, that points to the domain component suffix in which the agent will be registered, is given.principal and password credentials are given to gain access to the LDAP server.
When the Server is launched, you will see confirmation of the creation of the RMI connector, and the registration of its automatically generated URL in the JNDI/LDAP lookup service.
Start Server by typing the following command:
$ java -classpath . -Ddebug=true \ -Dagent.name=test-server-e \ -Durl="service:jmx:iiop:///jndi/${jndiiiop}/server" \ -Djava.naming.provider.url="$provider" \ -Djava.naming.security.principal="$principal" \ -Djava.naming.security.credentials="$credentials" \ jndi.Server &
In this command:
test-server-e.provider, that points to the domain component suffix in which the agent will be registered, is given.principal and password credentials are given to gain access to the LDAP server.jndiiiop in Section 4.1 "Initial Configuration".
When Server is launched, you will see confirmation of the creation of the RMI connector, and the registration of its URL in the JNDI/LDAP lookup service under the name test-server-e.
Start Server by typing the following command:
$ java -classpath . -Ddebug=true \ -Dagent.name=test-server-f \ -Durl="service:jmx:iiop:///jndi/${jndildap}/cn=x,dc=Test" \ -Djava.naming.provider.url="$provider" \ -Djava.naming.security.principal="$principal" \ -Djava.naming.security.credentials="$credentials" \ jndi.Server &
In this command:
test-server-f.provider, that points to the domain component suffix in which the agent will be registered, is given.principal and password credentials are given to gain access to the LDAP server. jndildap in Section 4.1 "Initial Configuration". When Server is launched, you will see confirmation of the creation of the RMI connector, and the registration of its URL in the JNDI/LDAP lookup service under the agent name test-server-f.
Client.
After starting the Server using the transport and external directory of your choice, start the Client:
$ java -classpath . -Ddebug=true \ -Djava.naming.provider.url="$provider" \ -Djava.naming.security.principal="$principal" \ -Djava.naming.security.credentials="$credentials" \ jndi.Client
You will see output confirming the detection of the agents created by the Server and registered in the lookup service. You will also see the identification and confirmation of the connection made to the agents.
To look up a specific agent, type the following command:
$ java -classpath . -Ddebug=true \
-Djava.naming.provider.url="$provider" \
-Djava.naming.security.principal="$principal" \
-Djava.naming.security.credentials="$credentials" \
-Dagent.name=agentName \
jndi.Client
In the command shown above, agentName is the name of the agent you want to look up. You can also specify a partial agent name by using *; for example, x* for all agent names beginning with the letter x.
