=head1 NAME

jmx_tomcat_dbpools - Plugin to monitor the database connection pools of a Tomcat application server via JMX

=head1 APPLICABLE SYSTEMS

Tested with Tomcat 5.5/6.0 on Sun JVM 6. Please use this plugin as a template for other application-server specific monitoring.

Any JVM that supports JMX should in theory do.

=head1 CONFIGURATION

  [jmx_tomcat_dbpools*]
    env.ip 127.0.0.1
    env.port 5400
    env.username monitorRole
    env.password SomethingSecret
    # The critical and warning levels are in % of the pool size
    env.critical 90
    env.warning 70

    env.JRE_HOME /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre

Needed configuration on the Tomcat side: add

  -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote \
  -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=5400 \
  -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false \
  -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false

to CATALINA_OPTS in your startup scripts.

Replace authenticate=false with
  -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.password.file=/etc/tomcat/jmxremote.password \
  -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.access.file=/etc/tomcat/jmxremote.access
 ...if you want authentication.

jmxremote.password:
 monitorRole SomethingSecret

jmxremote.access:
 monitorRole readonly

=head1 BUGS

No encryption supported in the JMX connection.
