Java Agents for Monitoring and Management (JAMM)

Data Intensive Distributed Computing Group
Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory

We are developing software agents to provide a wide range of management and monitoring functions for distributed resources. We call this system Java Agents for Monitoring and Management (JAMM). The ability to monitor and manage distributed computing components is critical for enabling high performance data intensive computing. As distributed systems become bigger and more complex, there are more pieces to monitor and manage. Our approach to this problem is to use a collection of software agents that can perform various administrative tasks. Agents can securely start any monitoring program on any host, and manage the output of any monitoring data.

The JAMM system is one of several reference implementations of the Monitoring archetecture being put together by the Grid Performace Working Group in the The Grid Forum .
