BEA Weblogic/Java application monitoring

We are in thr process of implementing a new application suite (most of it home grown) where one of the central componenets is BEA Weblogic.

Does anyone know of a way within APM to monitor the different components of the Java application (queues, available Java Memory, etc)

I am unfortunately a system administrator, and not a java developer, so I am not entirely sure what I need to monitor, and our java developers don't know much about system administration or Solarwinds. If it makes a difference, the application servers running weblogic are Solaris 10 servers.

All help appreciated.

You can't do this with APM 2.5, but I think you can do what you want with the Beta for APM 3.0. You can sign up here:

Any chance you know what the anticipated release date for APM 3.0 would be?

I am not allowed to tell you, but if you look historically, the time between Beta and GA is not very long.

Is the Weblogic monitor still scheduled for a future release?

I don't see it in APM 3.0

Can you use VB or a Perl script that executes XMPP commands that can pull JVM memory, and thread information into the APM? I know APM 3.0 and 3.1 does have the capability but what functionality are you added to get this information since you can't get it with WMI or SNMP?

We have a beta available for the next version of APM which has monitoring for the following. If you are interested in helping us test this, DM me via thwack.

- Now can monitor MBeans via our new JMX component
- Wizard based navigation to create and monitor JMX components
