Deployment Architecture

Why am I unable to establish connection (IIOP and RMI) between deployment manager/Node (IBM Webserver) 9.0.0.5 and Splunk 6.6.1?

Environment: IBM WAS 9.0.0.5 ND , Splunk 6.6.1
JAVA SDK: java version "1.8.0"

Step1: We have installed JMX addon and websphere addon in splunk.

Step2: WAS mbeans are exposed and we are able to view them on Jconsole.

Step3: Configure Splunk for IIPO connection to connect to WAS. Followed Splunk doc http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/AddOns/released/IBMWAS/Configureinputs

Error logs shown below:

For now, since our Splunk 6.6.1 trial has expired, we will try to follow same on Splunk 6.5 with WAS 9.0.0.5.
