Installing the Agent for Java EE/JMX (Oracle Containers for Java EE)

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. For more information, see Agent Authentication.

To Set up the Agent for Java EE/JMX (Oracle Containers for Java EE)

  1. Set up the JMX agent.

    • Host
    • Log on to the Enterprise Manager (http://localhost:8888/em).
    • Select the Applications tab and click Deploy.
    • Click Browse and select the file ucxjjmx.war. Then click  Next.
    • Type "uc4" in the text field Application Name, and then click  Next.
    • Click Deploy. Messages referring to the deploy procedure are displayed.
  2. Use the web configuration interface.

    The above address uses the string "ucxjjmx" because that is the string that was used before ".war" in the folder name. Adjust this address if you used a different name.

    • Adjust the JMX agent settings to your system environment. The most important settings are:
      • Name of the agent
      • Name of the computer on which a communication process is available
      • Port number of a communication process

    Note: the configuration file will be overwritten when you deploy the WAR file again. As a result you will have to redefine your configuration settings. Instead, you can also save a copy of your configuration file (INI file) before you start the deployment and copy it to the folder that includes the web application after the deployment has taken place.

  3. Important notes for creating jobs:

    • Host
    • In the Job object's JMX tab, select the option Remote Java VM.
    • In the field Initial Context Factory , enter the term "oc4j."
    • Specify the Server URL in the following format:
      service:jmx:rmi://Host name of the Java EE Server:Port/oc4j
