If you have available Server Visibility licenses (separate from machine agent licenses) then to enable server vis on those machine agents you'll need to go into the controller-info.xml file and flip the following attribute to "true" to enable that machine agent o report itself in correctly: <sim-enabled>true</sim-enabled>   To verify you have the right licenses, go into your Controller GUI, click on the cog wheel in the top right, and then go to "License" and check under "Infrastructure Visibility" ...

Looks like it's working correctly, what you're seeing are the calls it is making.  What exactly are you wanting? Are you wanting to configure the identification rules? Those can be found on he left-hand side of your application under Configuration > Instrumentation. ... View more

That's a good question. As long as you're looking at the same metric, it should work in both places. ... View more

Are you sure you're starting the correct javaagent.jar? No logs generally means the agent didn't start. Did you follow all the steps in this document? https://docs.appdynamics.com/display/PRO45/Install+the+Standalone+Machine+Agent   ... View more

You should be able to compare your scripts. In your Controller, when you go to User Experience > APPLICATIONNAME > Configuration > Configure JavaScript Agent, under 3. Save Config and Generate HTML Snippet, you should see a line similar to this: <script src='//cdn.appdynamics.com/adrum/adrum-4.5.13.2640.js'></script> (or whevever you're hosting your adrum)   If you look at the code you're serving up in your application header you should be able to compare the adrum-4.5.13.2640.js to yours.   ...

Essentially it's just a javascript injected in the header of your application, so the delay in IE might be in the way or order that it tried to run through the header. It'll be an interesting experiment to try and run F12/inspect element on an IE and a couple other browsers when running your application site to see if there is a difference.   As for the adrum, are you locally hosting your own or using the AppDynamics cdn? If it's local (or an old one) that may account for the delay?  ... View more

Since you're using a config file (.yml) and not the env, make sure you're using the correct syntax, I don't think you use " in .yml. Also, I'm assuming in your code, you're actually passing a correct port, account and access key, and not just "test?"  Here's the documentation which may help: https://docs.appdynamics.com/display/RUBY/Install+the+Ruby+Agent   ...

I'd really have to sit down and think about it, but I think it'll be difficult. Your agents are hard-coded to authenticate themselves to a specific Access Key and Controller Name. Dynamically creating new Controllers would require you to also dynamically create new controller-info.xml files. Also, license key management might be an issue because the license rules are hard-coded into the key. That's not to say it's impossible, but you'd have to overcome those, perhaps a shared .yml like they do with the cluster agents? Not sure.   You can probably definitely do it for the Events Services and maybe even the EUM server since those can scale pretty easily. But you'd have to take in some extra considerations on the Console for the Events Server and maybe a reverse proxy to handle a dynamics EUM servername. ... View more

If I understand your question correctly then what you'll want to do is install a Database Agent on your Controller (or some other place where your DB server can reach). You can find a diagram of how it works here: https://docs.appdynamics.com/display/PRO45/Overview+of+Database+Visibility From there you can setup individual "collectors" inside the Controller GUI which essentially makes monitoring individual DBs agentless from a db server perspective. The notes on how to install the agent are here: https://docs.appdynamics.com/display/PRO45/Install+the+Database+Agent and once you have it up and correct sa permissions you setup the collectors for each individual db here: https://docs.appdynamics.com/display/PRO45/Add+Database+Collectors   ...
