TYPESFILTER Statement—Specify the Notification Types to Subscribe to

The TYPESFILTER statement specifies a list of notification types to subscribe to in a JMX-MBean Subscribe job. A JMX-MBean Subscribe job can monitor an MBean for a single notification or monitor continuously for notifications. You can use the TYPESFILTER statement to filter the notifications by notification type.

Supported Job Type

This statement is optional for the JMX-MBean Subscribe job type.

Syntax

This statement has the following format:

TYPESFILTER type[,type...]

type

Identifies a notification type to monitor for.

Limits: Case-sensitive

Example: jmx.attribute.change (sends a notification every time an attribute changes)

Notes:

• Enclose value that contain delimiters (such as spaces) in single quotation marks.
• In a list, enclose values that contain commas in single quotes.
• The entire value can be to 1024 characters.
• In a JMX-MBean Subscribe job, you can specify the ATTRIBUTESFILTER statement or the TYPESFILTER statement, but not both. If you do not specify either statement, the job will subscribe to all notifications for the MBean.

Example: Monitor for Changes to Any MBean Attribute

Suppose that you want to set up continuous monitoring for changes to any attribute of the MBean named Config. Each time an attribute changes, an alert named CHGA is sent.

AGENT APPAGENT
URL service:jmx:rmi:///jndi/rmi://localhost:9999/server
MBEAN 'DefaultDomain:index=1,type=Config' CONTINUOUS(CHGA)
TYPESFILTER jmx.attribute.change
