Remote JMX Technology - jmx

anybody work on Remote Monitoring in java (JMX).
I have to monitor Remote Tomcat instance on Linux system and i need to monitor on local window machine.
i am accessing Remote Tomcat using Putty through VPN.
Please help..
I have tried by give jmx port in catalina.sh file of tomcat with variable JAVA_OPT and further tunneling in Putty ,but i m not able to access via localhost with port ,
also by using service jmx command.
please help !!!
Thanks for your time and support in advance ..

Remote JMX needs two ports to operate properly. And the second one (the RMI registry port) is by default picked randomly causing problems with firewalls etc.
Since JDK7u4 you can use
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.rmi.port=<port>
to set the RMI port to be used.
See this blog for more detailed steps.

Making Jenkins localhost publicly available within the same network

I am running my jenkins on localhost on my macmini which is my remote machine. All the tests are also running on that mac mini. However i want to share that localhost:8080 jenkins url to make it publickly so something like the eg.71.65.187.98:8080. so within the same network my coworkers can open the url and see the jenkins. How can i do that? without using any external service?
Run ifconfig in the terminal. it'll show all the network interfaces on your Mac. One of them is the network your machine is actively connected to.
If your Mac is on a wired connection that should be en0. Make a note of the address after inet, that should be the address your machine uses
It depends on how you start your jenkins server. If you use the generic war file then you can add the command flags --httpPort=yourPort --httpListenAddress=yourAdress.
A complete command could look like this:
java "${JAVA_OPTS}" -Xms256m -Xmx256m -jar jenkins.war --httpPort=8787 --httpListenAddress=192.168.0.171
Depending on your OS it may be possible that you need to tell your firewall to open the desired port.
I was able to solve the issue since i installed my jenkins using brew. first I needed to :
nano /usr/local/opt/jenkins-lts/homebrew.mxcl.jenkins-lts.plist
then change the httpListenAddress to 0.0.0.0
Then by using ifconfig on the terminal i was able to get my IP address and i was able the use IP address:8080 inside my network.

Jenkins : Unable to access jenkins in local machine

I'm trying to create a Test automation Pipeline to run my selenium scripts, I installed Jenkins in windows Remote Server 2012. Used following cmd($ java -jar jenkins.war) to start jenkins. It is working fine in Remote server with url:http://localhost:8080/
But when I'm trying to access it outside Remote server(my local machine) it is not working. am getting error message "This site can’t be reached"
My local laptop and Remote server is under the same proxy org network.
Can someone help how to resolve this issue , so that other folks can access it and run jobs when required from their laptops
Thanks in advance
Access Windows Firewall.
Add an inbound rule to allow port 8080 and
try accessing the url from any machine in the network.
you could allow/restrict access to all IPs, range of IPs or allow all. But to nullify the issue and confirm if its an issue with whitelisting IPs, I'd first allow access from all IPs with the wildcard *
for Debugging if its a port whitelisting issue, you could also telnet from the machine that you are trying to access this machine -
try
telnet remote machines IP Port
note: do not use a colon for port input just use a space

Docker Desktop for Windows configure to use Proxy Auto-Config Script (PAC)

I am using windows 10 Enterprise Version 1607,
We use a Proxy Auto Config (PAC) script for Proxy config.
The problem is docker connectivity. I have Docker 17.12.0-ce (stable release) is installed. I'm not able to configure Docker to use PAC to pull docker registry images.
Kindly help! I've gone through the official documentation several times, but nothing helpful. I'm not sure if I'm missing something.
.pac configuration file is actually returning a proxy server address based on which url you are visiting.
So you can skip using .pac and set your HTTP PROXY directly to docker.
If you want to know what is your proxy server address, visit the .pac from your browser, read it and you will find the proxy server address in clear text there.

How to run Grails application so that other computers on network can access it?

I've developed a Grails application and I want my coworkers to be able to test it. They are on my network so I figure they can access it by using my IP address and the port number (8080). I've tried running it according to the steps laid out here and here to no avail.
I noticed that whenever I run the program, even when I follow those instructions, it says:
Grails application running at http://localhost:8080 in environment: development
Basic networking stuff here.
When something starts on interface 127.0.0.1 port something
Usually that port is then available for all the interfaces on the machine
if you run netstat -plant you will see running ports open on the machine.
Basically what ever ipconfig or ifconfig tells under Linux as your internal interface something like 192.168.1.x
The app is then available on http://192.168.1.x:8080
If you can't access it from other machines on network start by trying to ping {your machine ip}
It sounds like network security stopping local access from 1 machine accessing another.
Or even better still your good old MS firewall try stopping your security stuff on your desktop
It's not clear if you can access the app yourself on your own machine? It should be available at:
http://localhost:8080/appname
Your co-workers should be able to access the app by changing localhost to your computer name:
http://mycomputername:8080/appname

Cassandra Cluster Setup getting JMX error

I m trying setup a cassandra cluster as a test bed but gave the JMX remote connection error. I seem to found the answer for my error from cassandra FAQ page
Nodetool says "Connection refused to host: 127.0.1.1" for any remote host. What gives?
Nodetool relies on JMX, which in turn relies on RMI, which in turn sets up it's own listeners and connectors as needed on each end of the exchange. Normally all of this happens behind the scenes transparently, but incorrect name resolution for either the host connecting, or the one being connected to, can result in crossed wires and confusing exceptions.
If you are not using DNS, then make sure that your /etc/hosts files are accurate on both ends. If that fails try passing the -Djava.rmi.server.hostname=$IP option to the JVM at startup (where $IP is the address of the interface you can reach from the remote machine).
But can somebody help me on how to do -Djava.rmi.server.hostname=$IP
Or what to add is hosts file, i know that in hosts normally we add "IP Alias", but whose ip and alias.
I dont know much java or either linux
I m currently working on ubuntu v10.04 and cassandra v0.74

For JMX you need to enable JMX-remoting:
java -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote
Depending on from where you want to access the jmx-server, you also need to specify a port:
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=12345
and set or disable passwords.
Have a look at http://download.oracle.com/javase/1.5.0/docs/guide/management/agent.html for more details.
