Enabling JMX counters for performance monitoring
This article describes how to expose JMX MBeans within Bitbucket Server for monitoring with a JMX client.
JMX とは何か
JMX (Java Management eXtensions) is a technology for monitoring and managing Java applications. JMX uses objects called MBeans (Managed Beans) to expose data and resources from your application.
Why would I want to enable JMX monitoring within Bitbucket Server?

Ticket statistics
Bitbucket server uses 'tickets' as a mechanism for creating back-pressure to prevent the system from being overloaded with requests. There are two types of tickets used by Bitbucket server, hosting tickets and command tickets.
Hosting tickets (com.atlassian.bitbucket:name=HostingTickets): Limits the number of SCM hosting operations, meaning pushes and pulls over HTTP or SSH, which may be running concurrently.
Command tickets(com.atlassian.bitbucket:name=CommandTickets): Limits the number of SCM commands, such as: `git diff`, `git blame`, or `git rev-list`, which may be running concurrently.
Bitbucket server supports the following metrics for each ticket type.
| 名前 | 説明 |
|---|---|
| Available | The number of tickets available for acquisition (lower number means higher load) |
| LastRejection | The timestamp of the last rejected ticket, or null if no tickets have been rejected |
| 名前 | The name of the ticket bucket either 'scm-command' or 'scm-hosting' |
| OldestQueuedRequest | The timestamp at which the oldest queued request started waiting, or null if there are no queued requests |
| QueuedRequests | The number of requests currently waiting for an available ticket |
| 合計 | The maximum number of tickets that can be acquired concurrently before back-pressure is applied |
| Used | The number of tickets that have been acquired (higher number means higher load) |

| LastRejection | Date of the last event being rejected, or null if no event has been rejected |
| PublishedCount | Total number of events delivered. An event that is delivered to 10 listeners counts as 1 event |

Expose JMX MBeans within Bitbucket Server
To enable Bitbucket Server to publish specific statistics using JMX you need to
- Locate and open the
bitbucket.propertiesfile in the<Bitbucket home directory>/shareddirectory.Add this property to the file.
jmx.enabled=true- ファイルを保存して閉じます。
- Create a JMX password file for secure access to JMX monitoring.
- Modify the
set-jmx-opts.shfile to enable Bitbucket Server to expose JMX Mbeans.
These changes will not take effect until Bitbucket Server has been restarted.
Set up the JMX password file
To set up a JMX password file to secure access to JMX monitoring
Create a file named
jmx.access.This file will contain password information. Ensure the file is only readable by the secure user Bitbucket Server will run under. However, note that if the Bitbucket Server user cannot read the file Bitbucket Server will fail to start.
Edit the
jmx.accessfile to include this property and save the file.monitorRole <password>If you wish to use a username other than
monitorRoleorcontrolRoleyou will need to modify the jmxremote.access file located in the /lib/management/directory of the installed Java.Change ownership of
jmx.accessfile,chown bitbucket:bitbucket <path>/jmx.accesswhere
bitbucketis the user that runs Bitbucket service.Change file permissions of
jmx.accessfile.chmod 600 <path>/jmx.access
Modify the Bitbucket Server environment file
To modify the set-jmx-opts.sh (for Windows set-jmx-opts.bat) files to enable JMX monitoring for Bitbucket Server
Within the
bindirectory, locate the fileset-jmx-opts.sh(for Windowsset-jmx-opts.bat) and change these properties.JMX_REMOTE_AUTH=password JMX_REMOTE_PORT=3333 RMI_SERVER_HOSTNAME=-Djava.rmi.server.hostname=<hostname> JMX_PASSWORD_FILE=<path>/jmx.access- Restart Bitbucket Server.
Expose JMX MBeans when Bitbucket Server is run as a Windows service
To expose JMX MBeans when Bitbucket Server is run as a Windows service
- Stop the Bitbucket Server service.
Open the command line prompt and enter.
cmdNavigate to the Bitbucket Server
bindirectory.cd <Bitbucket Server installation dir>\binRun this command.
tomcat8w //ES//AtlassianBitbucket ServerIn the window that appears, click on the Java tab to see the list of current startup options. Under "Java Options:" form, input the value
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=<JMX_REMOTE_PORT> -Djava.rmi.server.hostname=<hostname> -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.password.file=<JMX_PASSWORD_FILE>Ensure the owner of this password file is the secure user Bitbucket Server will run as. If the Bitbucket Server user cannot read the file, Bitbucket Server will fail to start.
Replace the values within the < > characters.
JMX_REMOTE_PORT=3333 JMX_PASSWORD_FILE=<path>\jmx.accessRestart Bitbucket Server Service.
Verify JMX is configured correctly
These steps use JConsole to test that JMX has been configured correctly. JConsole is a utility that ships with the Oracle JDK.
To start the jconsole utility, from a command line prompt enter
jconsole
Create a new JConsole connection with similar connection settings.
bitbucket the hostname of the instance of Bitbucket Server to monitor 3333
the JMX port number previously configured.
username, password values configured within the JMX password file jmx.access.接続 をクリックします。
When configured correctly, you will see these properties.

Example performance dashboard
This dashboard was generated using Java Mission Control that ships with the Oracle JDK (since 1.7u40). See the documentation that comes with your JMX client of choice for more information.
Configuring JMX to use SSL
You can find information about the options for configuring JMX to use SSL in the set-jmx-opts files. Comprehensive documentation is available from Oracle.
