Creating the monitor-configuration.xml 

To create the monitor-configuration.xml, see the monitor-configuration.xml Structure section. The details about the XML syntax can also be found in the document presenting the elements of the monitor-configuration.dtd. The XML file must always be named monitor-configuration.xml as this is how the monitoring framework recognizes it.

What differs amongst different resources is where this xml file has to be placed in the distribution archive of the resource. For applications, the xml file has to be put in the /META-INF sub-folder inside the EAR.
