Splunk AppDynamics

Controller showing "waiting for connection"

I am using the SaaS Controller and downloaded and installed the Java Agent.  I am running a Tomcat server on Windows.  The Tomcat logs show:

Registered app server agent with Node ID[927315] Component ID[801358] Application ID [266854]
Started AppDynamics Java Agent Successfully.

The Java Agent logs show:

JavaAgent - Started AppDynamics Java Agent Successfully.

But I still see the "waiting for connection" message on the Controller Web UI.

Any suggestions?

I left it running over night and it now shows connected. I guess it takes a long time to register with the SaaS Controller.
