| 8 | <p>Tomcat uses JMX MBeans as the technology for implementing |
||
| 9 | manageability of Tomcat.</p> |
||
| 10 | |||
| 11 | <p>The descriptions of JMX MBeans for Catalina are in the mbeans-descriptors.xml |
||
| 12 | file in each package.</p> |
||
| 13 | |||
| 14 | <p>You will need to add MBean descriptions for your custom components |
||
| 15 | in order to avoid a "ManagedBean is not found" exception.</p> |

| 21 | it describes.</p> |

| 22 | |||
