Issue/Introduction

We have Dx-APM java agents (Release 2023.1.0.26 (Build 990026) ) running on a number of WebLogic instances that are not showing any WebLogic of JDBC level metrics from JMX.  We have deployed the Weblogic JMX bundle as a part of the agent deploy.

Weblogic details:
/apps/java/bin/java -version
java version "1.7.0_67"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_67-b01)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.65-b04, mixed mode)

I don't believe this is an agent issue as we are not seeing the metrics from JConsole.  How is this properly configured at both the agent and App server level?

Resolution

If you have deployed the JMX extension, /<agent home>/extendions/deploy/jmx-weblogic-xt284-<version>.tar.gz and ensured that its enabled and whitelist the JMX metrics you wish to see, and if JConsole is not seeing the JMX metrics, then more than likely it is possible the application is not exposing them or utilizing the MBeans.  

You could double check these links for our Agent and JConsole.  It still is possible we could show them and JConsole can't, but all of the issues regarding missing JMX metrics that I have seen have always been that JConsole was able to see them but we were not.
