Bug #101875 for jmx4perl: Problem with the Path parameter when trying to monitor the thread pool of websphere

Hi Roland, Thanks a lot for such a great tool. I am trying to monitor WAS 8.5.5(Global security switched off) on a remote server. Resources I am using: RHEL 6.6 (64-bit) Perl v5.10.1 jmx4perl 1.11 jolokia 1.2.3 I am able to access the beans using the j4psh,jmx4perl and check_jmx4perl. However, when I am trying to fetch the thread pool , getting the below error: jmx4perl]# /usr/local/bin/check_jmx4perl --url http://<some IP> :51159/jolokia -m "WebSphere:name=WebContainer,type=ThreadPool,*" -a stats -p "*/*/statistics/'PoolSize'/current" UNKNOWN - Pattern request does not result in a proper return format: $VAR1 = undef; Verbose mode: jmx4perl]# /usr/local/bin/check_jmx4perl --url http://<some<http://%3csome> IP>:51159/jolokia -m "WebSphere:name=WebContainer,type=ThreadPool,*" -a stats -p "*/*/statistics/'PoolSize'/current" -v Result fetched in 50.1 ms: $VAR1 = [ bless( { 'request' => bless( { 'attribute' => 'stats', 'mbean' => 'WebSphere:name=WebContainer,type=ThreadPool,*', 'path' => '*/*/statistics/\'PoolSize\'/current', 'type' => 'read' }, 'JMX::Jmx4Perl::Request' ), 'timestamp' => 1422870846, 'value' => undef, 'status' => 200 }, 'JMX::Jmx4Perl::Response' ) ]; UNKNOWN - Pattern request does not result in a proper return format: $VAR1 = undef; -p "*/*/statistics/'PoolSize'/current" == I have got this path from the websphere.cfg file from the below link: https://github.com/rhuss/jmx4perl/blob/master/config/websphere/threads.cfg WebSphere:cell=CWUWAST1_port51150,mbeanIdentifier=cells/CWUWAST1_port51150/nodes/CWUWAST1_port51150/ servers/DISE_51150/server.xml#ThreadPool_1183122130079,name=WebContainer,node=CWUWAST1_port51150, platform=dynamicproxy,process=DISE_51150,spec=1.0,type=ThreadPool,version=8.0.0.5 This is the mbean I am trying to fetch the "PoolSize" from. Please advise how to fetch the thread pool data.
