Insecure JMX connection - Insecure JMX connection - Alfresco - Alfresco Sync Service - Alfresco/Alfresco-Sync-Service/3.0/Alfresco-Sync-Service/Alfresco-Sync-Service/Configure/Connect-to-Sync-Service-through-JMX/Insecure-JMX-connection - 3.0

You can start the Sync Service with JMX remote enabled and all security disabled, but this isn't recommended for production systems.

1. Start the service with the following Java options by substituting the required host name and ports:

   -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote=true
   -Djava.rmi.server.hostname=<sync-service-IP>
   -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=<jmx-remote-port>
   -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.rmi.port=<jmx-rmi-port>
   -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false
   -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false
   

   For example:

   cd <installLocation>/service-sync
   

   java -Xmx2G -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote=true -Djava.rmi.server.hostname=34.253.209.238
   -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=50800 -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.rmi.port=50801
   -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false
   -Djava.io.tmpdir=/var/tmp/dsync -cp postgresql.jar:service-sync-3.0.x.jar
   org.alfresco.service.sync.dropwizard.SyncService server config.yml
   

   Note

   Make sure the ports for com.sun.management.jmxremote.port and com.sun.management.jmxremote.rmi.port are open. Also, replace service-sync-3.0.x.jar with your exact version.

   Note

   For production systems, use both SSL client certificates to authenticate the client host, and password authentication for user management, by enabling com.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate and com.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl.

2. Start JConsole by typing the following command:

   jconsole
   

3. Select Remote Process, and enter the Sync Service IP, and com.sun.management.jmxremote.port value, as shown in the example below.

4. Click Connect.
