Question

VisualVM over ssh

Answer 1

+2 A:

You either need to run jstatd on the remote side, or specify a JMX connection using host:port.

Jstatd:

jstatd -J-Djava.security.policy=permissions.txt [-p port]

After that: add a remote connection to the target machine, and on the properties of that remote connection configure the jstatd connection.

(permissions.txt contains for example this:

grant {
  permission java.security.AllPermission;
};

I'm sorry, but I don't get it. I'm able to start the jstatd line on the remote side, but do I have to go there with "ssh -D 9696 me@remote" or is "ssh me@remote" sufficient? I still need the proxy stuff for visualvm - and so on. It's embarrassing but I think I need a step by step guide.

1) ssh -D 9696 me@remote, and run jstatd as above on the remote command line. If you want jstatd to be on a different port than the default 1099, use the -p argument to jstatd. 2) run visualvm.exe -J-Dnetbeans.system_socks_proxy=localhost:9696 -J-Djava.net.useSystemProxies=true on the local machine 3) in visual vm: add new remote connection, and specify remote as host and the port for jstatd (1099 for default, or what you specified with -p when running jstatd) You should now see the processes on the remote side in visualvm
