Missing Hosts in Tiers & Nodes

Hello,

 

we couldn't see a couple of nodes under a specific tier (can see only 2 nodes out of 4). I can see config.xml is updated on these 2 missing hosts. This is a .NET App

 

Tried to restart appdynamics agent service followed by app pool recyle, which didnt help.

 

When look in to the agent log , i see ....."Error MachineAgentManager Metrics Maximum metrics limit reached [200] no new metrics can be created. This exception will not repeat until restart.Exception: com.appdynamics.ee.agent.commonservices.metricgeneration.metrics.spi.qe: Maximum metrics limit reached [200] no new metrics can be created. This exception will not repeat until restart"

DDWAS6162 in the log is one of the hosts that is missing

 

Do we need to increase the max number metrics & how?  Please advise if there could be any other reason

 

Thanks!

Hi Sundar,

 

Let's continue to work on this on support case #110226.

Hi, 

 

This is the similar case with me also, would like to know how to check which person has moved / deleted the Host in Tiers & Nodes,

Is there any log / events generated when someone is working on the Controller, If Yes then need to know how to get the logs for the same.

I believe that whenever someone is loggin into the controller, an automatic recording session starts, in case on on-premise. I am not sure about the SaaS part. So you can compare the recorded sessions and cross check who had signed in as admin during the sessions which showed deleted tiers/nodes. 

I hope this helped. I am open to any other alternative suggestions that might be a better way to solve this.
