Thank you Ralph and Gary for your prompt response. Perhaps I was not clear, the HierarchyDynamicMBean exists in the log4j-1.214.jar and our app uses it and there are no errors. As we are trying to migrate to log4j-core-2.17.1, we noticed that HierarchyDynamicMBean is not part of log4j-core-2.17.1.jar and it is throwing errors.
My question are, is HierarchyDynamicMBean included in log4j 2? Is there an alternative solution/class? Can the HierarchyDynamicMBean class be packaged part of log4j2? Can the HierarchyDynamicMBean be extracted from log4j-1 and add it log4j-2? Any suggestions on how to migrate log4j2?

Log4j 1.x used the package org.apache.log4j. Log4j 2.x uses org.apache.logging.log4j. So how was that class part of Log4j 1.x?

Although Gary just added the JMX components to log4j-1.2-api I don’t believe you should actually use them. Log4j 2 comes with its own JMX support and since the design of Log4j 2 is different than Log4j 1 I suspect not everything in 1.x will work as expected.
