Day 15 in the #vDM30in30
As I discussed previously, I have been working on getting a Vagrant stack to demonstrate how JMX metrics from puppetserver look.
And I succeeded! (kind of…)
How it works
The main bit is here:
puppet_enterprise::profile::master::java_args:
Xmx: '2048m'
Xms: '2048m'
'Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port': '=1099'
'Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate': '=false'
'Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl': '=false'
This is hiera config, that sets Puppet Enterprise’s specific Puppet code to configure puppetserver JAVA_ARGS, which will start the JMX service on 1099.
From there, we can configure a generic profile to setup jmxtrans on the Puppet master machine:
