Sitescope and Weblogic using JMX

a good introduction on the topic:

http://90kts.com/blog/2008/monitoring-weblogic-using-jmx-in-sitescope/

especially useful is the test using JConsole:

jconsole.exe -J-Dcom.sun.CORBA.transport.ORBTCPReadTimeouts=10:60000:500:10

and connecting to
service:jmx:rmi://jndi/iiop://yourserver:yourport/weblogic.management.mbeanservers.runtime

Anyway Sitescrotum UI is a POC (piece of crap), for instance if you enter the good JMX URL with the wrong weblogic username you still get "invalid URL" error...
frankly pathetic.

I could make Sitescrotum work only by adding
-Dcom.sun.CORBA.transport.ORBTCPReadTimeouts=10:30000:500:10

of course Sitescrotum doesn't give you any warning or error message...
also I didn't provide the optional domain name... also try hitting the "clear selection" and "reload configuration" many times...

Sitescrotum UI sucks!
