JBoss Configuration

1. Start the JBoss Application Server from a command prompt:

   $ Java -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote=true Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=9005 Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authentication=true Djavax.management.builder.initial=org.jboss.system.server.jmx.MbeanServerBuilderImpl
   Djboss.platform.mbeanserver
   Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false -jar run.jar

   • If you do not specify a port value, JBoss defaults to 1099.
   • If authentication is not set, the value defaults to true. This entails that you specify a password and access file paths.

     Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.password.file = path of the password file

     Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.access.file = path of the access file

   • If the file path is not defined, the path defaults to $CATALINA_BASE/conf/.
2. Secure the password.
