I am trying to setup Appdynamics on our server and I have downloaded the machine agent on the server, but when I try to start the server I am getting this error in catalina.out


"Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM warning: ignoring option MaxPermSize=384m; support was removed in 8.0
Failed to find Premain-Class manifest attribute in /jirabin/atlassian-jira-6.4.6-standalone/appdynamics/machineagent.jar
Error occurred during initialization of VM
agent library failed to init: instrument"

Can you please help me resolve this

Machine agent has nothing to do with app server you are running. It basically monitors the hardware metrics related to your environment.You can start a separate command prompt/terminal and start machine agent (" java -jar machineagent.jar").

Also refer to the documentation and find the OS specific information for your environment:
