AppDynamics Monitoring Extensions require either a Server Infrastructure and Monitoring (SIM) Agent or a stand-alone Machine Agent (MA) to report metrics to the AppDynamics Controller.
IMPORTANT | AppDynamics Extensions are only supported if there is a single instance of either a Machine Agent with APM Agents or a SIM Agent on a physical host. Multiple instances of Machine Agent or SIM on a single physical host are not supported for extensions installation.
In this mode, it is imperative to purchase the Server Visibility license and provide the SIM-enabled flag to the Agent. It can be provided as a JVM argument to the Machine Agent, or can be specified in the controller-info.xml
. For more details, refer to Enable Server Visibility.

IMPORTANT | AppDynamics Extensions should be installed on the Agent only after verifying that the Agent’s hardware metrics are being reported consistently in the Controller.
