  3. Provide a name and description and click Save
  4. Now select the JMX Config and Add a Rule
  5. Here provide a name for the Rule. Metric Path can be any path that you want the attribute to be reported under. Domain name is the Mbean Name. Object Name Match Pattern is the Object Name from MBean
    Eg:
    
    Metric Path -> Tomcat Test
    
    Domain -> JMImplementation
    
    Object Name Match Pattern -> JMImplementation:type=MBeanServerDelegate​
  6. Under Define Metric from MBean Attributes section, define the MBean Attribute , Metric Name and Metric Getter chain that you want and save it.
    Eg:
    
    MBean Attribute -> ImplementationVersion
    
    Metric Name -> ImplementationVersion
    
    Metric Getter Chain -> toString().split(\\.).[0]​
