Check Java System properties

Hi!

Is it possible to see system properties from a Java process in dynatrace? Something similar to doing a "system.getproperties()" from a command line in that process?

Thanks!

If your application exposes a JMX interface that is remotely accessible from your (monitoring) collector you could use the JMX Enhanced Monitor Plugin and query the attribute "SystemProperties" that is provided via the RuntimeMXBean.

Hi Daniel,

The Agents overview in AppMon contains a lot of information about the process, for example the command line used to start it up.

Thanks Michael,

I'm trying to find a specific system property. There is a lot of info in Agents Overview but I cannot see one in particular (called "proxy").

That sounds like an enhancement request. Otherwise you can also change the code of the application by adding a method which gets the information you need and then capture it with a sensor.
