You can configure a statistics collector for every attribute of an MBean. The Management Console then generates a node with the name Statistics Collectors below the MBean client. All the statistics collectors for the MBean client are displayed below this node.
You set up a statistics collector as follows:
Display the attributes for the required MBean, see Displaying MBean attributes .
Select the attribute in the table and choose the command Collect Attribute Values in the attribute's context menu.
When you click the Statistics Collectors node, a table with all the statistics collectors available for the MBean is output. Alternatively, you can choose Show Statistics Collectors from the corresponding node's context menu. You will find more details on the meaning of the table columns in the online Help system.
You can modify the data collection interval for each statistics collector. To do this, select the required statistics collector in the table, choose Edit Properties in the context menu and then modify the interval in the following dialog. Alternatively, you can click the Edit button below the table.
To remove a statistics collector from the table, choose the command Remove MBean Statistics Collector from the statistics collector's context menu (alternatively: Remove button below the table). Removing a statistics collector also deletes all the data that has been collected by this collector up to the time of deletion.
