    Hi Hiko,

     

    Im facing a weird issue in here, and i need your expertise to help me.

     

    Im now configuring the Websphere MQ app and i put this JVM Arguments as mentioned in the guide.

     

    -javaagent:D:\Apps\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\wily\Agent.jar-Dcom.wily.introscope.agentProfile=D:\Apps\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\wily\core\config\IntroscopeAgent.profile

    Websphere Version is 7.

     

    When i restart my application server, i cant see the agent intrumenting the server to show in Introscope.

     

    please help me on this.

     

    Thanks,

    Arwin

    I don't know if it's a typo, but you need a space between the -javaagent property and agentProfile.

    Don't forget you must setup a startup class in WAS and associate your application servers with it.

    You really should just use my JACL script to configure all of your WAS instances.

    You can find it listed with the tag 'fieldpack' in the documents section.

    You must have a space to separate each JVM parameter, you can't just run them together.

     

    What version of the IBM J9 VM are you using? What version of WAS? MQ?



  • 7.  Re: Websphere config for Windows ..

    Posted May 22, 2015 03:43 PM

    WAS Version is 7.

    I dont know how to check the version of IBM J9 VM

    find out the location of JRE in your WAS installation and run '.\java -version'



  • 9.  Re: Websphere config for Windows ..

    Ive got J9VM sir.

    Can you show me the the entire list of generic JVM arguments?



  • 12.  Re: Websphere config for Windows ..

    Posted May 22, 2015 05:55 PM

    JRE6 version was.1.6

     

    -javaagent:D:\Apps\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\wily\Agent.jar-Dcom.wily.introscope.agentProfile=D:\Apps\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\wily\core\config\IntroscopeAgent.profile

    Are those the only arguments you have?

     

    You should also use AgentNoRedefNoRetrans.jar and IntroscopeAgent.NoRedef.profile.. Download the WAS non-installer tarball and extract out the WAS non-legacy agent files.

    Then download my JACL file to configure your WAS instances here.

    Replace the existing JACL file the downloaded one and follow the directions in the Java agent guide to run both listServers and configurePMI.



  • 14.  Re: Websphere config for Windows ..

    Posted May 25, 2015 05:05 AM

    That is the only place listed in the document to have changes.

    I did not change anything in the websphere server itself.

     

    The wily forlder doesnt have the 2 files you've mentioned above, wily folder only consist of Agent.jar and IntroscopeAgent.properties

     

    WHere can i found the JACL?

    They're in the tools folder.
    the JACL is linked in the posted. You cannot see it in the email sent from the community.
    you can also do a search for 'setPmiModules'. There is a version for 9.1 and 9.5+.

    Hi Hiko,

     

    I will just add this file in the tools folder?

     

    Thanks,

    Yes, just replace the existing file and run both commands per the agent guide in order.

    Unlike the guide instructions, you will need to run both commands to generate a properties file and to set all of your WAS instances properly.

    Hi Hiko,

     

    Thanks, but im bit confused on the next step that you've mention,

    Can you give me a step by step on how to work on this

     

    On the document, i just placed the Agent.jar and IntroscopeAgent.properties file path and also the Custom Service name and its corresponding jar file.

     

    How can i have a this 2 files ? AgentNoRedefNoRetrans.jar and IntroscopeAgent.NoRedef.profile

     

    Thank you.

    Look at my first reply about how and where to find those files.



  • 22.  Re: Websphere config for Windows ..

    Posted May 26, 2015 06:31 PM

    configurePMI.bat is not listed in the tools folder also.

    What version of APM are you deploying?

     

    Are you using the Java agent for WebSphere Application Server Non-Installer archive?



  • 24.  Re: Websphere config for Windows ..

    Posted May 26, 2015 06:38 PM

    APM Version is 9.5

    I just used a IntroscopeAgent9.5.0.0windows and choose Websphere for the app to monitor.

    As i said previously, the files are not in the agent installer. you need to get the non-installer archive.



  • 26.  Re: Websphere config for Windows ..

    Posted May 26, 2015 06:44 PM

    Sorry,but where can i find the non-installer archieve?



  • 27.  Re: Websphere config for Windows ..

    go to the product downloads and either look at the product list or download and review the reference PDF (cov*.pdf).



  • 28.  Re: Websphere config for Windows ..

    Posted May 26, 2015 06:57 PM

    Hi Hiko,

     

    There is no luck

    i cant search for that non-installer archieve.

     

    What is the name of the Non-Installer Archieve.

     

    Should i run the .JACL File?

    1. Download the reference file
    2. Extract the archive for OS version you're installing (in your case Windows; view attachment)
    3. Extract the agent files and locate the tools directory (view attachment)


  • 30.  Re: Websphere config for Windows ..

    Posted May 26, 2015 07:45 PM

    And now my problem is i was not able to download the file

    Try using the HTTP option when you go to choose how you want to download the files.



  • 32.  Re: Websphere config for Windows ..

    Posted May 27, 2015 01:52 PM

    I cant see HTTP link 

    all i can see is a pdf file 

     

    Would you mind if you will share to me the installer?

     

    Thank you so much.

    You're only to use the PDF for the reference info for the download you need to get from Product Download page.

    You still need to download the agent files.



  • 34.  Re: Websphere config for Windows ..

    Posted May 27, 2015 02:21 PM

    You need to the GEN # from the PDF to download the archive you need.

    I was not able to go to the link and maybe not able to download the file
