Hi Chris,

Thank you for describing this in such details!  Your description is correct.

In addition, apart from jstat there is jps tool that also can communicate
with jstatd and currently it faces the same problems if jstatd is deployed 
behind
a firewall or in a container: after successful connection to RMI registry the
further communication fails since jstatd chooses a random RMI port that is
not published by the container or might be blocked by a firewall configuration.

Best regards,
Daniil

     Hi Daniil,
Just want to make sure I understand what communications are going on
     here. Your concern is when the jstat and jstatd processes are on
     different sides of the firewall. When you launch jstatd, you specify the
     socket port it will receive requests on, and when you launch jstat, you
     must specify this same socket port, so no firewall problem there
     assuming the firewall is configured to allow communication over that
     port. However, once the request is received by jstatd, data can be
     communicated via RMI rather than over the specified socket port. By
     default jstatd was choosing a random RMI port, and I assume this RMI
     port was communicated to the jstat process via the initial socket port.
     This presents a problem for firewall configuration, since the firewall
     configuration cannot know the RMI port that will be used. So now you're
     allowing the rmi port to also be specified.
Am I close? :) Chris On 1/31/20 1:08 PM, Daniil Titov wrote:
