Creating services

A service is an object that can run either within or outside of the JMX agent’s VM. Systems Management Console users and clients to the JMX agent can control service objects. A service is implemented using a service MBean that is registered with the ServicesManager MBean—see “Service MBeans”. To create a service:

  1. Create a service MBean, which interacts with external services.

  2. Create and register a service to represent the MBean.
