Last Updated on Wednesday, 21 August 2013 Written by Chad Darby Thursday, 2 May 2013

VisualVM is a tool that provides a UI for viewing detailed information about Java applications that are running in the JVM. It is primarily used for monitoring and profiling a Java application. VisualVM is included with JDK versions JDK 6 update 7 and higher. You can read more about VisualVM here.

One feature that is missing in the default installation of VisualVM is the support to display MBeans. However, you can easily add this via a plugin.  Follow these steps for adding support for MBeans.

Once you follow the steps, then you will have a new tab MBeans in VisualVM.
