Monitoring and management using remote shell

Introduction

FIX Edge Java includes an interactive shell that you can use to start, stop and query the FIX server and sessions. There are also useful commands to monitor the JVM.

This section introduces the main commands and features of the remote shell.

Connecting to remote shell

The connection is done on port 2000.

...

Code Block
% bye
Have a good day!

Connection to localhost closed.

Remote shell credentials

The shell uses Spring Security to handle login duties. Refer to the Administrative access configuration.

Remote shell commands

After establishing a connection, the administrative shell provides an environment with a set of specific commands.

Cluster management

Usage:

Code Block
% cluster [-h | --help] COMMAND [ARGS]

...

Code Block
% cluster elect FixEdgeJ2
Node with id [-1062725719] has become the cluster leader

FIX Server management

Usage:

Code Block
% server [-h | --help] COMMAND [ARGS]

...

Code Block
% server opts
port state
----------
8911 STARTED

FIX Session management

Usage:

Code Block
% session [-h | --help] COMMAND [ARGS]

...

  • send - sends a FIXmessage to the session  (tag delimiters in the message should be pipes '|' and the message should be in quotes)

  • seqnum - sets a session’s in/out sequence numbers

  • tobackup - switches a session from primary to backup connection

  • toprimary - switches a session from backup to primary connection

  • getstart - shows the session’s scheduled start time

  • getstop - shows the session’s scheduled stop time

JMS management

Usage:

Code Block
% jms [-h | --help] COMMAND [ARGS]

...

Code Block
% jms ls
Id             State               Type                  MessagingMode          ProviderURL            DestinationURI
JMS_IN         CREATED             Consumer              Queue                  tcp://localhost:61616  queueSend
JMS_OUT        CREATED             Producer              Queue                  tcp://localhost:61616  queueSend

Kafka management

Usage:

Code Block
% kafka [-h | --help] COMMAND [ARGS]

...

Code Block
% kafka ls
Id              State                Type                   Server                  Topics
consumer1       CONNECTED            Consumer               localhost:9092          consumer
producer1       CREATED              Producer               localhost:9092          producer

Management over JMX

Connecting to remote shell

By default, JMX uses the 1099 port and the 'service:jmx:rmi://localhost/jndi/rmi://localhost:1099/fixedge' URL for the connection. These parameters can be changed in the fixedge.properties file. Refer to the Administrative JMX configuration.

You can use the standard JConsole tool from Java SDK or any other JMX client to establish a remote connection with the provided parameters.

JMX credentials

The JMX connection uses Spring Security to handle login duties. Refer to the Administrative access configuration section.

JMX controls

FEJ provides the same controls and operations through JMX and the remote shell.
