"PMI0002W Cannot find a PMI module name for the mbean" is logged once every minute by WebSphere Application Server running with WebSphere Studio Application Monitor
 Technote (troubleshooting)
 
Problem(Abstract)
"Cannot find a PMI module name for the mbean: j2cModule/ISRA/" is logged when IBM® WebSphere® Application Server is configured to be used with WebSphere Studio Application Monitor.
 
Resolving the problem
The PMI0002W messages occur when the Performance Monitoring Infrastructure (PMI) attempts to probe the information stored in a WebSphere Application Server data source (or any other resource, but in the context of WebSphere Studio Application Monitor it is only the data sources). Since the PMI-pollable resource has not yet been used, the PMI registry is not "aware" of the data source as a pollable PMI object. Once the request to use the data source is issued, the data source object is initialized and as part of that initialization it registers with the WebSphere Application Server PMI registry. That is why the messages stop once the data source is used.

The message appears every time PMI is polled by WebSphere Studio Application Monitor. The frequency of the polling (or the polling interval) value is stored in the PMI_POLLING_FREQ variable in the publish server properties of the managing server (/etc/ps1.properties, /etc/ps2.properties in the WebSphere Studio Application Monitor install directory). By default, it is set to poll every 60 seconds.

This is a known bug in WebSphere Studio Application Monitor and is fixed in WebSphere Studio Application Monitor 2.1.4 for z/OS® and distributed. It is also observed on WebSphere Studio Application Monitor 3.0 (all releases).
