Referring to FIG. 2, FIG. 2 is a flowchart of a method for managing a Java virtual machine according to an embodiment of the present invention, where the process includes the following steps:

Step 201: Construct a proxy interface of a Java Virtual Machine Tool Interface (JVMTI) of the Java virtual machine, where the proxy interface provides all management information of the Java virtual machine, such as monitoring and operation. And information that the exception needs to be corrected.

Within the Java Virtual Machine, JVMTI provides a programming interface that allows software developers to create software agents to monitor and control Java programming language applications. Through the JVMTI interface, you can use C/C++ to create agents (Agents) to monitor and control JVM and Java applications, including profiling, debugging, monitoring, thread analysis, thread operations, garbage collection, deadlock decisions, and more.

Step 202: Encapsulate the proxy interface as an MBean resource having a management function of the Java virtual machine.

Step 203: Set the Java Management Extension Server. Step 204: Register the MBean resource encapsulated with the Java virtual machine management function to a Java Management Extension (JMX) server.

JMX is a framework for implanting management functions for applications, devices, systems, and more. JMX can flexibly develop seamlessly integrated systems, networks, and service management applications across a range of heterogeneous operating system platforms, system architectures, and network transport protocols. It makes it easy for Java applications to be managed remotely.
