How to connect to remote osgi container using -Dosgi.console vm arg [message #1241438]

I am trying to access the osgi console of eclipse container in remote machine which is used to run automated test suites. We use ant to run the unit tests in test agents. Below is the ant taks we are using. I found out that i need to add this command line argument to make the remote agent listen to the port specified."-Dosgi.console=8005". I ran the script but it is not stopping saying"listening to 8005". i was able to successfully remote debug this agent but i need osgi console view to debug the bundles that got installed in the agent. Did i place the argument in the correct position? Does it have to be in any order? Any help is appreciated. i do not understand why it never worked.

<java dir="${basedir}" classname="org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.Main" fork="true" classpathref="equinox.launcher.class.path">
<arg line="-application org.eclipse.pde.junit.runtime.uitestapplication -data ${tempWorkspace} -dev bin -testlistener org.eclipse.test.XMLTestListener -clean -port ${pde.test.port} -testpluginname ${testrunner.plugin.name} -classnames ${master.testsuite.name}"/>
