Connecting to Mbean fromSCOM

Hi Donald/Venu , 

Actually SCOM is a microsoft utility to monitor the status of various applications instances . To Monitor it does not contact the Application directly , It calls the beanspy and inturn beanspy is linked to the application using Mbean , For that there is an xml configured on the SCOM/beanspy side which calls the method of particular Mbean, The same approach is followed with tomcat also .

I have a sample of the xml file that is used while using Tomcat with Scom .

Tomcat application discovery XML:

<Configuration>

  <ComputerName>$Target/Host/Property[Type="JEE!Microsoft.JEE.ApplicationServer.Monitored.Instance"]/HostName$</ComputerName>

  <Protocol>$Target/Host/Property[Type="JEE!Microsoft.JEE.ApplicationServer.Monitored.Instance"]/Protocol$</Protocol>

  <Port>$Target/Host/Property[Type="JEE!Microsoft.JEE.ApplicationServer.Monitored.Instance"]/Port$</Port>

  <BaseURL />

  <JMXQuery>Catalina:j2eeType=WebModule,*</JMXQuery>

  <AdditionalArguments>&amp;MaxDepth=1</AdditionalArguments>

  <RequestBody />

  <HealthyExpression>

    <SimpleExpression>

      <ValueExpression>

        <!-- The XPATH if it were applied directly against the XML in a browser should look like: -->

        <!-- /MBeans/org.apache.catalina.mbeans.ContextMBean[@objectName = "Catalina:j2eeType=WebModule,name=//localhost/,J2EEApplication=none,J2EEServer=none"]/Properties/state -->

        <XPathQuery Type="String">MBeans/MBean[@Name='org.apache.catalina.mbeans.ContextMBean' and @objectName="$Target/Property[Type="JEE!Microsoft.JEE.Application"]/ObjectName$"]/Properties/Property[@Name='stateName']</XPathQuery>

      </ValueExpression>

      <Operator>Equal</Operator>

      <ValueExpression>

        <Value Type="String">STARTED</Value>

      </ValueExpression>

    </SimpleExpression>

  </HealthyExpression>

  <NotHealthyExpression>

    <SimpleExpression>

      <ValueExpression>

        <!-- The XPATH should look like: -->

        <!-- /MBeans/org.apache.catalina.mbeans.ContextMBean[@objectName = "Catalina:j2eeType=WebModule,name=//localhost/,J2EEApplication=none,J2EEServer=none"]/Properties/state -->

        <XPathQuery Type="String">MBeans/MBean[@Name='org.apache.catalina.mbeans.ContextMBean' and @objectName="$Target/Property[Type="JEE!Microsoft.JEE.Application"]/ObjectName$"]/Properties/Property[@Name='stateName']</XPathQuery>

      </ValueExpression>

      <Operator>NotEqual</Operator>

      <ValueExpression>

        <Value Type="String">STARTED</Value>

      </ValueExpression>

    </SimpleExpression>

  </NotHealthyExpression>

  <IntervalSeconds>900</IntervalSeconds>

  <TimeoutSeconds>300</TimeoutSeconds>

</Configuration>.

So I am looking for a sample xml that can be similarly used to calls the mbeans present on the webcq side.

Can you please explain your use case a bit more. 

its not clear what you are trying to do ..
