How to setup a JMX Notification Listener?

This is a follow-up of How to stop message processing before undeploying?

I want to configure a JMX Notification Listener for undeployment events, but I don't know how to set the mbean name correctly. We are currently using JBoss 4.2.3. The following attempt won't trigger any notification.

<mbean code="jboss.example.NotificationListener" 
        name="jboss.example:name=NotificationListener">
    <attribute name="SubscriptionList">
        <subscription-list>
            <mbean name="jboss.j2ee:service=EjbModule,type=jmx.attribute.change">
            </mbean>
            <notification type="JBOSS_MONITOR_NOTIFICATION"></notification>
        </subscription-list>
    </attribute>
</mbean>

Here is a list of all notification events, which pop up on undeployment:

I thought it would be best to catch the very first event, so I want to开发者_如何学运维 catch:

Any suggestions?

Using the example JBoss NotificationListener and assuming an EJB3 MDB deploymentas follows:

• EAR: myear.ear
• JAR: myjar.jar
• MDB Name: MyMDB

the deployment descriptor for the listener MBean would be like this:

  <server>
    <mbean code="jboss.example.NotificationListener"
           name="jboss.example:name=NotificationListener">
      <attribute name="SubscriptionList">      
        <subscription-list>
          <mbean name="jboss.j2ee:ear=myear.ear,jar=myjar.jar,service=EJB3,name=MyMDB" handback="MyMDB">
            <notification type="jmx.attribute.change">
          </mbean>
        </subscription-list>
      </attribute>
    </mbean>
  </server>

If you were to simply log the toString of the notification when stopping the MDB, it would look something like this:

State 3 (Started) --> State 1 (Stopping)

    NOTIFICATION:<javax.management.AttributeChangeNotification@60de8209
attributeName=State attributeType=java.lang.Integer **oldValue=3 newValue=1
type=jmx.attribute.change** sequenceNumber=7 timeStamp=1305033720266 userData=null
message=MdbDelegateWrapper stopping 
source=jboss.j2ee:ear=myear.ear,jar=myear.jar,name=MyMDB,service=EJB3 
source=jboss.j2ee:ear=myear.ear,jar=myear.jar,name=MyMDB,service=EJB3>

State 1 (Stopping) --> State 0 (Stopped)

NOTIFICATION:<javax.management.AttributeChangeNotification@296e41ab attributeName=State
attributeType=java.lang.Integer **oldValue=1 newValue=0 type=jmx.attribute.change**
sequenceNumber=8 timeStamp=1305033720320 userData=null 
message=MdbDelegateWrapper stopped 
source=jboss.j2ee:ear=myear.ear,jar=myear.jar,name=MyMDB,service=EJB3 
source=jboss.j2ee:ear=myear.ear,jar=myear.jar,name=MyMDB,service=EJB3>
