How to access Spring-boot JMX remotely

Question

I know that spring automatically expose JMX beans. I was able to access it locally using VisualVM.

However on prod how I can connect to remotely to the app using it\

Answer 1

Add the following JVM Properties in "$JAVA_OPTS" (in your application):

-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port= -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false -Djava.rmi.server.hostname=

In the Jconsole/Visual VM use the following to connect:

service:jmx:rmi:///jndi/rmi://:/jmxrmi

It doesn't enable security, but will help you to connect to the remote server.
