23.5. Connect to the Application

Use the following command to connect to the application using the CLI: 
[disconnected//]> connect jmx://localhost:12000
[jmx://localhost:12000/MyCacheManager/>

Note

The port value 12000 depends on the value the JVM is started with. For example, starting the JVM with the -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=12000 command line parameter uses this port, but otherwise a random port is chosen. When the remoting protocol (remoting://localhost:9999) is used, the JBoss Data Grid server administration port is used (the default is port 9999).
The command line prompt displays the active connection information, including the currently selected CacheManager.
Use the cache command to select a cache before performing cache operations. The CLI supports tab completion, therefore using the cache and pressing the tab button displays a list of active caches: 
[[jmx://localhost:12000/MyCacheManager/> cache
___defaultcache  namedCache
[jmx://localhost:12000/MyCacheManager/]> cache ___defaultcache
[jmx://localhost:12000/MyCacheManager/___defaultcache]>
Additionally, pressing tab displays a list of valid commands for the CLI.
