Monitor remote host running jolokia/JBoss using agent on another host

Hi,
I have ServerA that is running old RHEL5.7 Linux. It has multiple JBoss 5.1 instances on different IPs on same host. I want to monitor those instances. Local check_mk agent has been manually installed and running properly. Also jolokia.war has been deployed and running properly on each instance. RHEL has old python2.4. Running mk_jolokia_2 generates many errors due to python version age. Is there any way to deploy jolokia plugin on another machine (ServerB with recent python version), monitor ServerA jboss instances over LAN and associate reported data with ServerA.

Yes this should be possible. Inside the “jolokia.cfg” you can specify the instances with IPs. It is not relevant if it’s a remote or local IP.

Hi,
I have already done that. My point is that in monitoring these services seem bound to monitoring node ServerB, not real machine hosting them ServerA. In ServerA definition I also added all secondary IPs in its definition, but output is still same.
