Ryan,
Thanks for this. I'll post a snippet to the forge.

Excerpts from Ryan Morgan's message of Thu Jan 31 09:50:52 -0800 2008:
> There are some other options you can try. The "Tomcat 5.5" type in HQ uses
> Hyperic's servlet filter and webapp to instrument the metrics and is a bit
> out-dated.
>
> If you are running Tomcat 5.5 with Java 1.5, you can use the "Apache Tomcat
> 5.5" type, which uses JMX to collect counter information directly from Tomcat.
> You can see what information is available by connecting to your application via
> jconsole. This method does not require you instrument your application with
> Hyperic's servlet filter.
>
> To try this, create the "Apache Tomcat 5.5" type by hand. You can do this by
> navigating to the platform running Tomcat and selecting "New Server" from the
> tools menu in the upper right hand corner.

> HTH,
