[Netarchivesuite-users] JMX user names

[nicolas.giraud at bnf.fr]

Hi,

I have a question about the configuration properties 
settings.monitor.jmxUserName and 
settings.harvester.harvesting.heritrix.jmxUserName. 

I understand that the deploy module uses the settings defined in the 
deploy configuration file to generate the file jxmemote.password.

1) If I don't specify the property settings.monitor.jmxUserName the 
deployer complains "WARNING: No usernames or passwords for monitor on 
machine foo", and no credentials are generated in jmxremote.password. 
Hence monitoring is broken, java.lang.SecurityExceptions are thrown as the 
authentication is invalid.

2) If I don't specify the property 
settings.harvester.harvesting.heritrix.jmxUserName the deployer does not 
complain. However a java.lang.SecurityException is thrown when the harvest 
controller attempts to start an heritrix instance :  "
java.lang.SecurityException: Access denied! No entries found in the access 
file [/usr/java/jdk1.6.0_13/jre/lib/management/jmxremote.access] for any 
of the authenticated identities [nas_bnf_test_monitorRole] ", why is it 
looking for oles and passwords in JAVA_HOME and not in the 
jmxremote.password, which is correctly generated?

3) If I specify both settings.monitor.jmxUserName and 
settings.harvester.harvesting.heritrix.jmxUserName , no matter if the 
values are the same or different, the deployer complains "WARNING: 
Different usernames or passwords under heritrix in machine foo", and no 
credentials are generated in jmxremote.password.

In the quickstart environment, there are 2 different user names and 
passwords in the jmxremote.password file, but only the heritrix one is 
configured in settings.xml ... I'm puzzled, what is the correct way to set 
JMX user names and passwords?

Nicolas
