Ashok,

Your first step will be to introduce the AppDynamics java agent into the JVM running your Spring Boot application.

This process is described here.

Warm regards,
Peter

I added the javaagent path in the VM argument of spring boot application in eclipse like below. But when I start my application, application gets start and I am not seeing any message related to java agent starting also I am not seeing any connection established from agent to controller on controller UI. Cloud you please help to identify the issue here.

-Djavaagent:D:/Applogs/appagent/javaagent.jar

The correct option to load an agent into the JVM is "-javaagent", not "-Djavaagent"

I hope that helps.  If not, please post full detail of your command line.

I tried that as well but didn't work. Below is the exact parameter I have added as VM arguments in eclipse. Agent is not getting start

I have started the spring boot in command line using below command still didn't work. 

java -javaagent:D:/Applogs/appagent/javaagent.jar -jar loan-origination-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar

Appreciate if your help to resolve this issue.

Do you see any agent logs written under D:/Applogs/appagent/ver4.x.y.x/logs/<nodename>?

What happens if you run

"java -version -javaagent:D:/Applogs/appagent/javaagent.jar" 

from the command line?

[suraj.panda]

I don't see any log file generated under D:/Applogs/appagent/ver4.x.y.x/logs/

When I did java -version -javaagent:D:/Applogs/appagent/javaagent.jar" it printed below,

java -version D:\Applogs\AppServerAgent-4.5.9.25648\javaagent.jar

Sorry, my mistake, I reversed the options.

What happens when you run:

"java -javaagent:D:/Applogs/appagent/javaagent.jar -version"

after issuing the above command below is the result.
