sybase.system.log4j:Type=Notifier

Description

The sybase.system.log4j:Type=Notifier MBean creates a new Log4J appender, to which Log4J messages can be written. This MBean detects Log4J messages and converts them to JMX notifications. This makes it possible to send a Log4J message that was created anywhere in the JVM, as a JMX notification. To set this up, create a suitable entry in the log4j.properties file, and specify that debug messages created in the required hierarchy are sent to the JMXAppender.
