Description

I have started to see the following stack track after an upgrade to the mentioned JDK in the environment:

ERROR StatusLogger No log4j2 configuration file found. Using default configuration: logging only errors to the console.
ERROR StatusLogger Could not reconfigure JMX java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: sun/management/ExtendedPlatformComponent

I use a custom org.apache.logging.log4j.core.config.ConfigurationFactory to configure my setup with @Order(0) and not using XML configuration.

There is no explicit mention of moving/deleting such such in the release notes of the referenced JDK version.

Is there anyway I can disable this JMX server internally configured by log4j2?
