Chapter 22. Process monitoring
22.1. JBoss Operations Network
A JBoss Operations Network plug-in can be used to monitor rules sessions for Red Hat JBoss BPM Suite.
Due to a limitation of passing the JVM monitoring arguments via the Maven command line, all com.sun.management.jmxremote.* parameters must be passed to the Red Hat JBoss BPM Suite application via the pom.xml configuration file.
See the Installation Guide of Red Hat JBoss Operations Network for installation instructions on the Red Hat JBoss ON server.
22.2. Installing the JBoss BRMS Plug-in into JBoss ON
Red Hat JBoss BRMS plug-in for JBoss Operations Network can be installed by either copying the plug-in JAR files to the JBoss Operations Network plug-in directory or through the JBoss Operations Network GUI.
To copy the plug-in JAR files to the JBoss Operations Network plug-in directory, follow the following procedure:
Procedure: Copying the JBoss BRMS plug-in JAR files
Extract the JBoss BRMS plug-in pack archive to a temporary location. This creates a subdirectory with the name
jon-plugin-pack-brms-bpms-3.3.0.GA. For example:[root@server rhq-agent]# unzip jon-plugin-pack-brms-bpms-3.3.0.GA.zip -d /tmp
Copy the extracted JBoss BRMS plug-in JAR files from the
jon-plugin-pack-brms-bpms-3.3.0.GA/directory to the JBoss ON server plug-in directory. For example:[root@server rhq-agent]# cp /tmp/jon-plugin-pack-brms-bpms-3.3.0.GA/*.jar /opt/jon/jon-server-3.3.0.GA/plugins
- Start the JBoss Operations Network server to update the JBoss BRMS plug-in.
To upload the JBoss BRMS plug-in through the JBoss Operations Network GUI, follow this procedure:
Procedure: Uploading the JBoss BRMS plug-in through GUI
- Start the JBoss Operations Network Server and Log in to access the GUI.
- In the top navigation of the GUI, open the Administration menu.
- In the Configuration area on the left, select the Agent Plugins link.
- At the bottom of the list of loaded agent plug-ins, click the Upload a plugin button and choose the BRMS plugin.
- The JBoss BRMS plug-in for JBoss Operations Network is now uploaded.
22.3. Monitoring Kie Bases and Kie Sessions
In order for JBoss Operations Network to monitor KieBases and KieSessions, MBeans must be enabled.
MBeans can be enabled either by passing the parameter: -kie.mbeans = enabled or via the API:
KieBaseConfiguration kbconf = KieServices.Factory.get().newKieBaseConfiguration(); kbconf.setOption(MBeansOption.ENABLED);
Kie Services have been implemented for JBoss BRMS 6; for JBoss BRMS 5, Drools Services was the naming convention used and it had different measurements on sessions. For example, activation → match renaming occurred in the updated version.
Please refer to the Resource Monitoring and Operations Reference guide of the Red Hat JBoss Operations Network for information on importing Kie Sessions into the Inventory View for monitoring purposes.
