Java Application Server monitoring via SNMP

This zip file contains a template for monitoring Java Application Servers (JVM Servers) monitoring via SNMP with SolarWinds Server & Application Monitor (SaM).  This template was generated by Solarwinds staff with expertise in systems administration and monitoring Java Applications Servers. It includes components for things you should monitor versus things you could monitor.  The zip file includes a PDF that describes each monitored component and recommendations for specific counters where possible.

The PDF also provides basic SNMP configuration information for the following Java Application Servers:

• Standalone Java Virtual Machine
• Apache Tomcat (tested on version 7.0)
• JBoss (tested on versions 5.0.1, 5.1, and 6.0)
• GlassFish (tested on version 3.1)
• IBM WebSphere (tested on version 3.1)
• Oracle WebLogic (tested on version 10.3.4.0)

  • Not using an ACL file is typically not recommended, but depending upon the environment and other security policies in place (VLANs, firewalls, router access control lists, etc. coupled with the shared secret that is the community string) it can be secure enough for most environments. Security IMHO should be directly proportional to the sensitivity of the information that needs to be protected. I don't believe there's really much (if any) information you could get out of a Java Application server via SNMP that could be construed as "sensitive".
