Setting Up the Agent for J2EE/JMX (Tomcat)

The following guide describes how to install an agent in an AE system in which authentication is not used. Additional installation steps are required before the agent can be started and used if you intend to use one of the available authentication methods. More detailed information is provided in the document Advanced Security.

<role rolename="administrators"/>
<user username="admin" password="" roles="admin,manager,administrators"/>

Restart Tomcat to apply the roles.
