Installing Java Agent on SAP IDES Windows Machine

Hi,

I'm testing installing the Java Agent on SAP IDES / Windows 2008 R2 x64.

Java:

  • jdk1.8.0_231
  • jre1.8.0_231
  • jdk-13.0.1

As I found on Docs.Appdynamics, the Java Agent should be installed first to use it for the SAP Agent.:

Appdynamics:

  • AppServerAgent-4.5.16.28759
  • APPD-SAP-4.5.1911.0

My problem is the Java Agent is being installed, but not picked on the controller side:

java -javaagent:C:\Appdaynamics\AppServerAgent-4.5.16.28759\javaagent.jar
..............
............................
..........................................
........................................................
t-4.5.16.28759\ver4.5.16.28759\logs]
Started AppDynamics Java Agent Successfully.

I reconfigured the host's files to make sure that SAP and Appdynamnics resolve each other.

controller-info.xml configuration is all set:

    <controller-host>appdy.localdoman</controller-host>
    <controller-port>8090</controller-port>
    <controller-ssl-enabled>false</controller-ssl-enabled>
    <use-simple-hostname>false</use-simple-hostname>
    <application-name>SAPIDS</application-name>
    <tier-name>IDSTier</tier-name>
    <node-name>IDS</node-name>
    <enable-orchestration>false</enable-orchestration>
    <use-ssl-client-auth>false</use-ssl-client-auth>
    <account-name>customer1</account-name>
    <account-access-key>akey</account-access-key>
    <force-agent-registration>false</force-agent-registration>
    <auto-naming>false</auto-naming>

I used to find an established connection when I run netstat, but not anymore after restarting my SAP server.

Regards,

Khalid

I don't use SAP in my environment, but maybe this document can help?
