Identifying a Method Server Port Number and JMX URL for Remote Access
When JConsole is run under a different user or on a remote machine, connecting to the method server requires the JMX port number of the full JMX URL. Most other JMX consoles require the full JMX URL for local monitoring as well.
You can obtain the necessary JMX URLs from MBeans in the server manager that represents and controls the JMX proxy connections to the method servers. These MBeans have ObjectNames with the following pattern:
com.ptc:wt.processGroup=MethodServers,methodServer=MethodServer.processId
These MBeans appear in JConsole as the following in the JConsole MBean tree:
com.ptc > MethodServers > MethodServer.processId
The RemoteJmxUrl attribute of each of these MBeans provides the necessary remote JMX connection URL.
