1. Does appDynamics Agent work ( captures snaps/callGraph etc ) only when Viewer is running ?
or does Agent monitor appserver transaction when applite viewer is offline ?
How frequent agent monitors business transaction ?
2. When Application server is processing bulk orders , handling large numbers of sessions/ users .. in that case does agent create issues while monitoring?
Issues like
- out of memory issue
- slowing down the business transaction
- high CPU usage
- Increase Page faults etc..
- disk space usage ?
3. Can I run appDynamics Agent in production environment ? can It cause any outage ?
Comments
Agent will monitor all the business transaction.
2) we have our internal safety checks so agent will not create such kind of issues.
3) You can run on production environment.
Also as mentioned in http://liteforums.appdynamics.com/discussion/252/can-we-find-memory-leaks-high-object-usage-in-appdynamics-lite-viewer#Item_2 post, would you like to try out our 30 days trial ?
