Hi Ajay,

I've tried this but cannot get the xml document of returned listeners to be parsed and iterated over.  I'm no java developer.  Can you provide us with a solution please?

This is what I have attempted to no avail, as the document ends up being empty for some reason and it throws exceptions in the logs.

String AvailableListenersXML = (String) com.pega.pegarules.priv.management.MBeanManagement.executeMBeanOperation(
 "com.pega.pegarules.management.internal.ListenerManagement", "AvailableListeners", null, null, null);
// from the XML returned by AvailableListenersXML, parse out /AvailableListeners/Listener/Name into ListenerNames[]

try {
 javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory dbFactory = javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
 javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder dBuilder = dbFactory.newDocumentBuilder();

 StringBuilder xmlStringBuilder = new StringBuilder();
 xmlStringBuilder.append(AvailableListenersXML);
 java.io.ByteArrayInputStream input =  new java.io.ByteArrayInputStream(xmlStringBuilder.toString().getBytes("UTF-8"));
 org.w3c.dom.Document doc = dBuilder.parse(AvailableListenersXML);
 //doc.getDocumentElement().normalize();
  oLog.infoForced(doc);
 javax.xml.xpath.XPath xPath = javax.xml.xpath.XPathFactory.newInstance().newXPath();
 String expression = "/AvailableListeners/Listener/Name";
  oLog.infoForced(expression);
 org.w3c.dom.NodeList nodeList = (org.w3c.dom.NodeList) xPath.compile(expression).evaluate(AvailableListenersXML, javax.xml.xpath.XPathConstants.NODESET);
 String[] ListenerNames = new String[nodeList.getLength()];
  oLog.infoForced(java.util.Arrays.toString(ListenerNames));
 for (String ListenerName: ListenerNames) {
  myXML = ListenerName;
  oLog.infoForced(myXML);
  //com.pega.pegarules.priv.management.MBeanManagement.executeMBeanOperation("com.pega.pegarules.management.internal.ListenerManagement", "StartListener", ListenerName, null, null);
 }
} catch (javax.xml.parsers.ParserConfigurationException e) {
 throw new PRRuntimeException(e);
} catch (org.xml.sax.SAXException e) {
 throw new PRRuntimeException(e);
} catch (java.io.IOException e) {
 throw new PRRuntimeException(e);
} catch (javax.xml.xpath.XPathExpressionException e) {
 throw new PRRuntimeException(e);
}

Thanks
Craig

OK I finally got it to return me the list of listeners, however when I invoke 

com.pega.pegarules.priv.management.MBeanManagement.executeMBeanOperation("com.pega.pegarules.management.internal.ListenerManagement", "StartListener", param1, null, null);

I get an error message :-

by: java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: com.pega.pegarules.management.internal.ListenerManagement.StartListener() at java.lang.Class.getMethod(Unknown Source) ... 67 more

And in the log we get "java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: com.pega.pegarules.management.internal.ListenerManagement.StartListener()"

This suggests that the method StartListener doesn't exist.  We are running 7.31.  Also when I send in the listener name do I need to specify exactly what is returned by the AvailableListeners or the shortname?

Thanks
Craig

UPDATE : I found this page https://community.pega.com/support/support-articles/prsysmgmtwar-deployment-issue-pega-715 which describes exactly the error I am getting but SMA doesn't have an issue and we don't have another commons-logging.jar in our lib folder or anywhere else.  Also within jconsole when I look at the StartListener method it's expecting the Listener ID as a string but won't accept either the full name from the available listeners or the shortname!  Any ideas?
