Hi @tmihaldinec,

Do you want to install APM agent:

- on applications that use Tibco as JMS messaging platform
- on Tibco itself

Installing agent on applications that use JMS is probably the most interesting option, as monitoring JMS messages on Tibco itself would not provide very actionable information, and is also probably better covered with dedicated monitoring tools, just like a database server.

JMS is an `incubating` feature, and is thus disabled by default, [see documentation on how to enable it](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/java/current/supported-technologies-details.html#supported-messaging-frameworks).

Hi,

many thanks.. i was trying to gather info how to install APM agent on Tibco itself and to connect all applications to be visible in APM

but.. now when i am reading your post i can see that this is better idea than doing APM on Tibco itself

just for sake of curiosity.. installing APM agent is not possible?

thanks  
tomislav

From what I've read on their documentation that seems possible, but I don't know exactly how to do it.

Searching for ways to configure JVM parameters to add a `-javaagent` parameter should be a good start, as I guess it's quite unlikely that they document how to attach a Java agent to their solution.
