Monitoring a stand-alone C# .NET application

Greetings.  I have followed the instructions to edit config.xml and set up my standalone application.  I am unable to see any load or metrics however AppDynamics reports when the application ends or is terminated.  My app is set to consume 100% of one CPU and around 90MB of data allocation in a loop that continually allocates and releases memory.  I am trying to learn AppDyn by modeling a simple app.

Is there a video that is specific to a .NET standalone application?  Seems like everything is based around IIS.

Hi,

  Based on your comment sounds like the tier/node representing this application has registered with Controller UI. With Standalone Applications, Agent cannot identify transactions automatically. You will need to define Custom Match Rules of type .net Class/Method

Thanks,

I did get my app in a state that AppDyn monitors it.  Thanks for the insight.
