REST Management for MBeans
The Converged Application Server beans are used extensively by WLS components to manage configuration settings and to monitor and manage running servers.
The Converged Application Server beans are derived from Java interfaces. At runtime, the Converged Application Server constructs internal trees of Java beans that can be used to configure and monitor the system. The Converged Application Server dynamically generates REST resources, incrementally and on-demand at runtime, by using the bean trees and bean Infos. These REST resources provide an alternative interface for managing the Converged Application Server.
The following MBeans are available to configure the Converged Application Server:
- SipServerBean
- AppRouterBean
- ProxyBean
- ServerDebugBean
- MessageDebugBean
- sipSecurityBean
- PersistanceBean
- clusterLoadbalancerMapBean
- OverloadProtectionBean
The following MBeans are available to monitor the runtime state of the Converged Application Server:
- SipServerRuntimeMBean
- ReplicaRuntimeMBean
- DiameterRuntimeMBean
- ExternalLoadBalancerRuntimeMBean
- SipApplicationRuntimeMBean
- SipPerformanceRuntimeMBean
- SipServletSnmpTrapRuntimeMBean
All runtime MBeans are read-only.
The Converged Application Server provides the following bean trees:
- Edit access—Used to modify the configuration, for example, config.xml and system resource files. (Only available on the Administration Server.)
- Runtime access—Used to view that server’s configuration and to access its monitoring data. (Available on every server.)
- Domain access—Contains copies of the runtime beans of all of the running servers, provides a single point of access for monitoring, is also used to view the most current configuration that has been persisted. (Only available on the Administration Server.)
WebLogic Scripting Tool (WLST) presents the bean trees as follows:
- Edit—matches the underlying edit access bean tree.
- Domain config—the configuration MBean half of the domain access bean tree (such as the last persisted configuration).
- Domain runtime—the runtime MBean half of the domain access bean tree (such as, for monitoring all servers).
- Server config—the configuration MBean half of the runtime access bean tree (such as, the configuration the server is using).
- ServerRuntime—the runtime MBean half of the runtime access bean tree (such as, for monitoring a specific server).
