adding multiple JVM hosts in config.xml

hello.

whats the correct syntax of adding multple JVM instances in config.xml or its one config per jvm ( i doubt it though).

here's what my config.xml looks like

<jmxserver host="devappa40" jvmDescription="Dev_Portal" jmxport="5002">
<jmxserver host="devappb12" jvmDescription="Dev_Switch" jmxport="9192">

I can see the first host but not the 2nd one.

any help is appreciated...

The app ships with examples of how to declare multiple jmx server elements.

Hi sramiz,

You need use / at the end of line before > , correct syntax is as below:

<jmxserver host="devappa40" jvmDescription="Dev_Portal" jmxport="5002" />
<jmxserver host="devappb12" jvmDescription="Dev_Switch" jmxport="9192" />
