Hi,

I just started the trail for the app dynamics.

On my test machine(ubuntu), I have three instances of tomcat server and one standalone application.

I have downloaded the java agent on this machine. I configured all my tomcat instance to use the agent. .All tomcat instances are connected and sending load to the controller on another machine.

Similar settings I have added to my standalone application start script. On controller dashboard, I can see it connected but not getting any load from the application.

Can you please suggest

Dear Prashant,
For a standalone Java application, you need to configure POJO as custom
entry point in transaction detection. Otherwise AppD won't detect any
activity out of the box. So you need to declare some class/methods as entry
point to start detecting activity and therefore see something on the flow
map.
You can find relevant info in the documentation.
Pls let us know how it goes.

Hi all

more documentation on POJO entry points can be found here:

https://docs.appdynamics.com/display/PRO45/POJO+Entry+Points

Can you explain how a transaction is entering this standalone application ? Is there a request from outside to trigger activity ?

Thanks

Philipp
