Java Management Service (JMS) has introduced several key enhancements designed to simplify onboarding and provide deeper insights into your fleet’s health. These updates address common usability challenges by improving visibility and streamlining management. With these improvements, JMS makes it easier to manage and address failed JMS plugin registrations, orphaned JMS plugins, and other issues affecting plugin and fleet operations—ultimately empowering system administrators to enhance overall efficiency.

Streamlined Monitoring with the JMS Resource Health Dashboard

One of the standout updates is the JMS Resource Health Dashboard, which provides a centralized view of the health status of all JMS resources, including Fleets and Plugins. This new dashboard allows system administrators to easily monitor and address issues across their entire environment, including across compartments.

With this dashboard, users can now:

✅ Identify failed and unregistered plugins at a glance, saving valuable time on troubleshooting.
✅ View health issues affecting both JMS Fleets and Plugins in a consolidated, single-pane view.
✅ Find detailed information on issues affecting your resources, with clear resolution options to quickly address problems.
✅ Take immediate action on instances that require attention, including direct links to remedial steps.

This dashboard enhances visibility and simplifies JMS fleet management by consolidating critical information, making it easier to spot and resolve any problems that may impact your operations.

User Notifications for JMS Resource Health Issues

As part of these enhancements, JMS now proactively notifies users about JMS resource health issues through OCI Notifications. Users will receive summarized reports on JMS Fleet and JMS Plugin health issues. These notifications help administrators take timely action to resolve issues before they impact operations.

Quick Solutions for JMS Fleet Health Challenges

The latest updates in JMS providing administrators with the tools to swiftly address common fleet-related challenges. The new features allow you to:

✅ Easily identify fleets in the “Needs Attention” state and diagnose the root causes of issues affecting fleet health.
✅ Understand why certain fleets may be missing managed instances or experiencing other health disruptions.
✅ Take corrective action directly from the console, whether it’s adding managed instances, resolving configuration errors, or addressing other fleet-specific issues.

The improvements make it easier to pinpoint fleet health concerns and resolve them quickly, ensuring smoother operations and reducing downtime.

Simplified Troubleshooting for JMS Plugin Health

In the past, system administrators faced challenges in identifying failed JMS plugin registrations or unregistered plugins. With the latest update, identifying and addressing plugin health issues is now quicker and easier, enabling system administrators to identify plugins that:

🔹 Failed to register to a fleet due to configuration or policy issues.
🔹 Are not associated with any fleet at all.

For example, unregistered plugins will now display a clear message like: “JMS Plugin Enabled, but not registered to a JMS Fleet.”

To simplify troubleshooting, corrective actions are suggested directly from the console, enabling you to re-register plugins or resolve any underlying configuration problems hindering their registration. These improvements streamline JMS plugin management and ensure that your JMS Fleet plugins don’t consume unnecessary resources, keeping your environment optimized.

Additional Information

Fleet Management in JMS allows Java users to group Java Virtual Machines running in Desktops, Servers, or Cloud deployments into fleets, obtain insights into their Java usage, and manage their Java workloads. Fleet Management provides reporting and management capabilities through Oracle Cloud Infrastructure platform services to monitor and observe Java usage (on-premises or in the cloud), as well as potentially identify issues that may be present in their usage. Fleet Management reduces the challenges of inventory, stability, performance, security baseline and compliance, tuning, troubleshooting, and cost optimization for stakeholders involved in the end-to-end life-cycle of Java applications, starting with design and development all the way to production and maintenance
