How to configure REST instrumentation

[CommunityUser]

One of my App Servers only uses rest as Entry Points. So i am not seing any transactions comming in that are related to the other servers in my Environment. All transactions show as "All Others Transactions" how can i configure this properly?

Hi boris,

If i understood the query correctly, you are reaching max-business-transactions (default 50 per node, 200 per controller application) due to auto-discovery transactions (on Servlets. Struts, etc) enabled under Configure -> Instrumentation -> Transaction detection -> entry points

And if the auto discovered transactions crossing BT limit it will be categorized under "All Other Traffic - <Tier>". To resolve this try to excluded BTs discovered which are not of interest and also configure custom rules, so that BTs from All Other traffix will start discovering part of Monitored Business transactions for the new laod.

Please refer docs:

http://docs.appdynamics.com/display/PRO12S/Default+Business+Transactions

In addition to that If the REST requests discovered under "All Others Transactions" (are of type "Servlet") please configure custom rules if there are more rest URLs to avoid further overflow

Ex: If rest request URLs are as follows:
/AppContext/user/add/1
/AppContext/user/add/5

/AppContext/user/crud/delete/2
/AppContext/user/crud/updated/usernametest1
...
you can configure Servlet custom rules "REST ADD Users" matching UR1 say (URL startswith "/AppContext/user/add") which will match requests say(/AppContext/user/add/1, /AppContext/user/add/2 )

refer doc : http://docs.appdynamics.com/display/PRO12S/Servlet+Entry+Points

Please let us know if that clarrifies your query and let us know if you need further information

Thanks,
