Server Monitoring not enabled with AppDynamics lite

Hi Team,

I was trying to install machine agent on windows server but could see that the agent gets connected with "NO" flag in "Server Monitoring Enabled". In order to enable Server Monitoring I went ahead and changed below property to true in controller-info xml.

<sim-enabled>true</sim-enabled>

After making the changes, when I restarted the server it was throwing license error in logs:

[main] 03 Jan 2017 11:05:19,683 INFO FlexibleX509TrustManager - Using default keystore for SSL certificate validation.
[main] 03 Jan 2017 11:05:20,287 INFO HostIdProvider - Default Host Identifier Resolver using host name for unique host identifier [CGSCLIT45048598]
[system-thread-0] 03 Jan 2017 11:05:20,539 INFO SecondStageSystem - Starting main system with features Features(features=[], reason=Features.Reason(message=Unsuccessful leasing a Server Monitoring license, code=License Lease Failed))
[Thread-1] 03 Jan 2017 11:10:39,194 INFO SecondStageSystem - Stopping main system with features Features(features=[], reason=Features.Reason(message=Unsuccessful leasing a Server Monitoring license, code=License Lease Failed)).

From the above logs, it seems server monitoring option is not included in lite version but the documentation says we can have 6 units of Server Monitoring (via Standalone and .NET Machine Agents). Given below is the documentation link.

https://docs.appdynamics.com/display/PRO42/Lite+and+Pro+Editions

I have even tried with jvm argument "-Dappdynamics.sim.enabled" which starts the agent well but server monitoring still remains disabled.

Kindly help.

Regards,

Mukesh Singh
