JConsole with Cassandra DB

Most of the people cannot find the way to connect to the Cassandra DB process through the JConsole. Let me explain how to do in simple way.

1. First you have to download the Cassandra DB and do the following changes on $Cassandra_Home/conf/cassandra-env.sh

JVM_OPTS="$JVM_OPTS -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false"
JVM_OPTS="$JVM_OPTS -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false"
JVM_OPTS="$JVM_OPTS -Djava.rmi.server.hostname=ec2-54-242-183-160.compute-1.amazonaws.com"



2. Now Start the Cassandra DB now you can connect to the Cassandra Process through the JConsole.

URL - service:jmx:rmi:///jndi/rmi://:7199/jmxrmi
ex/ service:jmx:rmi:///jndi/rmi://ec2-54-242-183-160.compute-1.amazonaws.com:7199/jmxrmi



You don't need to put Username and Password to connect.
