Usage / Definition Locations
Annotation
Turn on authentication for the Terracotta server. An empty tag <authentication/> defaults to the standard Java JMX authentication mechanism referring to password and access files in: $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/management.
  • $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/management/jmxremote.password
  • $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/management/jmxremote.access
You must modify these files as such (if none exist create them):

jmxremote.password

add a line to the end of the file declaring your username and password followed by a caridge return:

secretusername secretpassword

jmxremote.access

add the following line (with a caridge return) to the end of your file:

secretusername readwrite

You must also:
$ chmod 500 jmxremote.password
$ chown <user who will execute the tc-server> jmxremote.password

NOTE: This will not work unless you're correctly running the Terracotta server with Java version >= 1.5
