Monitoring MBeans which expose one or more
{@link Statistic} implement this interface.
Each MonitoringStats MBean exposes Statistics as Attributes formed
using the following pattern:
statistic-name_field-name
For example, a CountStatistic names "Hosts" would generate the following
Attributes:
- Hosts_Name
- Hosts_Description
- Hosts_Unit
- Hosts_StartTime
- Hosts_LastSampleTime
- Hosts_Count
For most purposes, it is the "name_Count" value which should be of
primary interest.
The type of the Statistic will govern how many Attributes are generated,
based on its actual fields, but every Statistic interface will have
at least the Name, Description, Unit, StartTime and LastSampleTime fields present.
Note: These derived Attributes are not made available directly
in the interface for the MBean; please refer to the documentation
for each MonitoringStats MBean to determine which Statistics are available,
and thus which derived Attributes available. |
