An EAServer proxy MBean is registered as a service MBean, with the ServicesManager MBean, when the JMX agent is started. This allows users to manage services, such as remote EAServer processes, using the ServicesManager MBean. The ServicesManager MBean can use the EAServer proxy MBean to monitor a remote EAServer process for changes in state, and for requests to start or stop the process. The state of registered services, such as the EAServer service (EAS), is available through the ServicesManager MBean, the Systems Management Console, SNMP clients, and JMX clients.
The EAServer proxy MBean provides methods that enable clients to start, stop, restart, and refresh EAServer. In addition, the proxy MBean provides methods that enable clients to retrieve information about EAServer, such as:
State information (running, stopped, or failed)
Version information
Log file details
Repository information, including component and package details
Monitor data
Message service information
Various other EAServer attributes
