Splunk AppDynamics

Java Agent for WebMethods on Linux

Hello everyone,

I am in the process of installing a Java agent on Linux (RHEL8) for WebMethods. It's pretty straight forward in the documentation. However, there is a difference between the AppDynamics documentation and the WebMethods one. In AppD, it says (and I am quoting here from webMethods Startup Settings)😞

For webMethods servers that use the Tanuki Java service wrapper for start-up, you need to configure the agent in the wrapper.conf file. See Tanuki Service Wrapper Settings.

Yet in WebMethods documentation (My webMethods Server Webhelp)

😞

There are some parameters that do not relate to My webMethods Server but to the JVM itself. You set custom JVM parameters in the custom_wrapper.conf file for My webMethods Server, using the following syntax:
wrapper.java.additional.n=parameter

Which configuration method is correct, and if both are correct which one is recommended?

Can the AppD documentation be updated also to include the default paths/locations to the .conf files in WebMethods?
