MONITORING GRID RESOURCES: JMX IN ACTION

摘要: Abstract: This paper summarizes research on monitoring GRID resources, which resulted in theimplementation of the JIMS system. It contains an overview most important architectural andsoftware concepts that make constructed system flexible and user-friendly. The evaluatesJMX Web Service technologies as foundations for implementing systems. Particularattention has been paid to adaptability, autoconfiguration interoperability.Keywords: JMX, Grid, Monitoring, Distributed System, SOA, Services 1. Introduction Monitoring distributed computer resources is integral part anymanagement activity. grid computing concept [1] addresses issues related ac-cessibility transparent sharing computational, storage com-munication among groups users, putting management aspects at theforefront research. Recently, community inspiredby a new approach based SOA (Service Oriented Architecture) [2].The pop-ular way this type systems use Services. Exposing thesystem’s functionality, computation or visualization modules services seems bea powerful elegant approach. As are going be components sharedamong they should monitored managed similarly hardware in-frastructure. requires uniform man-agement software resources. dynamic character systems’configuration searching enabling instrumentation activationof demand runtime.Taking these general trends requirements into account, three years ago theDistributed Systems Research Group, group scientists from Department ofComputer Science
