Hi Ankjain,

Servers: - uri: should point to you dropwizard health metric URL path.

For more details, please refer link: http://metrics.dropwizard.io/3.1.0/manual/core/

For Example:

#Dropwizard Health Metric URL path
servers:
  - uri: http://<<dropwizard_host>>:<<health_metrics_port>>/metrics
    displayName: metrics

dropwizard health metric URL path ?

So its mean i have to run any dropwizard server i thought appdynamocs itself catch it by capturing from java application wen i put in monitors folder. I have java service running nothing else. 

Can you help me which server i need to run to get dropwizard metrics and do i need to code anything in java to report ?

Hi Ankjain,

Is your Java application a dropwizard based application. If not, try to get some sample dropwizard application dowloading and run is.

Verify if you are able to fetch using URL: 

http://<<dropwizard_host>>:<<health_metrics_port>>/metrics

If yes, please download a standalone machine agent and install the dropwizard monitoring extension (By changing the config.yml file accordingly) .
