Will it be possible to pass jar files in JMX plugin to access JVM on IBM box

Hi,

I am using IBM servers where we are not able to access the JVM details through JMX plugin on SPlunk.
I tried on same host using jConsole I am able to where as using remote I am not able to. When I have added few Jar files to remote location host and tried jconsole I am able to.

Is there any way, I can add those Jar files in Splunk (which location ?) so that Splunk JMX can read the JVM details and log the same.

Thank you.

You can dump any jar files in the $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/SPLUNK4JMX/bin/lib/ directory and they will be classloaded.
