[logback-user] Logback JMX Operations and Attributes

[LogbackUser]

On debugging more I found that the issue was because logback has a check to
not register a bean if its already registered. This creates a issue with
glassfish since glassfish creates two classloaders for each web application.
The first one is a temporary one which is later destroyed. The problem
arises because the logback JMX mbean is instantiated with this temporary
classloader and registered with the mbean server. 
Since re-registration is not done any operations on the logback jmx mbean
through jconsole fail.

A workaround to this is to not add the jmxconfigurator tag in the
configuration file and register the logback jmx bean manually in a servlet
context listener.
