DB2 agent connection

[Jeyfer.Araya]

Hello,

I have a question.

Is some driver necessary to connect the database agent with DB2 database?

My agent is on a windows server and has communication with E-series Server where the Database is.

Thanks.

Hello Jeyfer,

Thanks for posting to the AppDynamics Community.

Driver is not necessary because it is bundled with Database agent, but you need

• Java above 1.8 version
• network access to the database from the server agent runs
• DB2 version with 9.x, 10.x, or 11.x
• SYSMON authority and connection privileges to the monitoring user for DB2.

Please see below documents for details.
