Init file for Linux

CommunityUser — Tue, 01 Aug 2017 18:40:50 GMT

I'm using the below script to start the dbagent automatically but it doesn't start the agent. interactively running it produces this error:

# ./dbagent start

./dbagent: line 21: -Dappdynamics.agent.logging.dir=

#AGENT_OPTIONS=: command not found

what should these AGENT_OPTIONS be set to?

#AGENT_OPTIONS="$AGENT_OPTIONS -Dappdynamics.agent.logging.dir=/opt/appd/dbagent/logs"

when I try to set them the script still fails with the same error.

my script

#!/bin/bash
#
# Init file for AppDynamics Database Agent
#
# chkconfig: 2345 60 25
# description: database agent for AppDynamics

#CHANGE ME: Set to the Java install directory
JAVA="export JAVA_HOME=$(readlink -f /usr/bin/java | sed "s:bin/java::")""

#CHANGE ME: Set to the agent's install directory
AGENT_HOME="/opt/appd/dbagent"
AGENT="$AGENT_HOME/db-agent.jar"

#CHANGE ME: Set to a name that is unique to the Controller - required when a machine agent is
#also running on the same hardware
AGENT_OPTIONS="appdynamics.agent.uniqueHostId='unique host ID'"

# Agent Options
AGENT_OPTIONS=""
#AGENT_OPTIONS="$AGENT_OPTIONS -Dappdynamics.agent.logging.dir="
#AGENT_OPTIONS="$AGENT_OPTIONS -Dmetric.http.listener=true | false
#AGENT_OPTIONS="$AGENT_OPTIONS -Dmetric.http.listener.port=<port>"
#AGENT_OPTIONS="$AGENT_OPTIONS -Dserver.name=<hostname>"


start()
{
nohup $JAVA $AGENT_OPTIONS -Xmx256m -jar $AGENT > /dev/null 2>&1 &
}

stop()
{
ps -opid,cmd |egrep "[0-9]+ $jJAVA.*db-agent" | awk '{print $1}' | xargs --no-run-if-empty kill -9
}

case "$1" in
start)
start
;;

stop)
stop
;;

restart)
stop
start
;;
*)
echo "Usage: $0 start|stop|restart"
esac

Hi John,

Please comment and add the AGENT_OPTIONS sections like below.

# commenting below

# AGENT_OPTIONS = ""

# Adding the unique host id of the dbagent installed machine

AGENT_OPTIONS="appdynamics.agent.uniqueHostId='DBAgent-Server-Name'"

You can also add the properties as listed document based on the need.

https://docs.appdynamics.com/display/PRO43/Database+Agent+Configuration+Properties

Save and Now check the behavior.

Regards,

Anka
