Enable JMX on activeMQ

Apache activeMQ provide some startup daemon, if you extract the package and go into bin/ folder you will see

bin/
 activemq
 activemq-admin  
 linux-x86-32  
 linux-x86-64
         |
         --activemq  libwrapper.so  wrapper  wrapper.conf
 macosx  
 run.jar  
 wrapper.jar

Configure config file

Edit activemq config files at

apache-activemq-5.4.2/conf/activemq.xml

change this following lines from false into true

<managementContext>
           <managementContext createConnector="false"/>
</managementContext>

into

<managementContext>
           <managementContext createConnector="true"/>
</managementContext>

if you wanna using wrapper, unmark the jmx option at

apache-activemq-5.4.2/bin/linux-x86-64/wrapper.conf

become

wrapper.java.additional.n=-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false
wrapper.java.additional.n=-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false
