Hi

 we have licences for 05 databases to monitor. My doubt is can we have same DBAagent installed in all servers  or we need to install different DBAagent .

You can monitor the 5 (is that five? You wrote 05) DBs from the same DB
agent as long as it has access to the 5 DB using JDBC. Hope it helps.

You don't need 5 DB agents but only one on a central server with 5
collectors rather than 5 DB agents local on the DB

Hi

 Thanks a lot. It worked.

 can we customize our requirement of getting error logs from the sever.

Presenlty all errors are extraciing from the intsnace and displaying it.

My pleasure!

No you can't use DB Monitoring to monitor error logs.

Looks like a scenario for Log Analytics https://docs.appdynamics.com/display/PRO42/Configuring+Log+Analytics

However, it requires a license.

What are you trying to achieve?
