JBoss provides a simple command line tool that allows for interaction with a remote JMX server instance. This tool is called twiddle (for twiddling bits via JMX) and is located in the bin
directory of the distribution. Twiddle is a command execution tool, not a general command shell. It is run using either the twiddle.sh
or twiddle.bat
scripts, and passing in a -h
(--help
) argument provides the basic syntax, and --help-commands
shows what you can do with the tool:
[bin]$ ./twiddle.sh -h A JMX client to 'twiddle' with a remote JBoss server. usage: twiddle.sh [options] <command> [command_arguments] options: -h, --help Show this help message --help-commands Show a list of commands -H=<command> Show command specific help -c=command.properties Specify the command.properties file to use -D<name>[=<value>] Set a system property -- Stop processing options -s, --server=<url> The JNDI URL of the remote server -a, --adapter=<name> The JNDI name of the RMI adapter to use -q, --quiet Be somewhat more quiet
