Monitoring Background java Process

CommunityUser — Tue, 12 Jun 2018 10:23:17 GMT

I have been trying to configure Java agent with a standalone background java process. The agent reports at the controller and shows memory usage stats but does not give the flowmap/Business Transactions and calls.

Can someone tell me how to deal with this?

Activity is only shown on the flowmap if an entry point is hit. Since you describe your process as a standalone background process, I think it's very likely that none of the entry points configured out of the box are present.

You will need to configure a custom POJO entry point.

can you elaborate on how the batch model is setup on your side ?

What framework are you using ? Do you know the class name where the batch is started from ?

Alternatively we can have a look at using the Live Preview feature in AppD to see what the agent detects while a batch is running:
