Dears,

we have IIB v10 and we will implement appdynamics agent soon but in our enviroment, we are disabling/discard  RFH2 which contain singularity header message 

so may i know if it's mandatory to have correlation to enable this header or not

Ahmed,

If you want to correlate between IIB and other up or down stream tiers instrumented with AppDynamics agents and the communication is over MQSeries / iBM MQ then the RFH2 header will indeed be required for end to end BT correlation to work.

The IIB agent should still be able to track the activity within IIB, however, even if it just appears as an uncorrelated standalone tier,

Warm regards,

Peter
