Managing a Remote Machine using JConsole
If you are using JConsole to manage a remote machine, you must specify the host name and port number of the specific servlet engine, server manager, or method server on the machine to which you want to connect. Use the Remote Process option that is on the JConsole connection window to enter this information.
Additionally, you must configure the remote machine to accept remote management. For details on configuring a machine to accept remote management, refer to the following URL:
