A maximum of 1000 calls per minute limit is exceeded, and Maximum heap utilization percentage goes above 95%

A maximum of 2000 calls per minute limit is exceeded, and Maximum heap utilization percentage goes above 95%

A maximum of 2000 calls per minute limit is exceeded, and Maximum heap utilization percentage goes above 95%

Suggested answer: A

Explanation:

Development Level Monitoring in AppDynamics is designed for use in a lower volume, non-production environment. For a default configuration, Development Level Monitoring will get automatically disabled if the monitored environment exceeds a threshold, typically a maximum of 1000 calls per minute, and the Maximum heap utilization percentage goes above 95%. These thresholds are in place to prevent excessive overhead in a production environment where such detailed monitoring could impact performance.

AppDynamics documentation on Agent Configuration: Provides information on configuration settings for monitoring levels, including when Development Level Monitoring is automatically disabled due to exceeding thresholds.

An AppDynamics deployment has Business Transaction Lock Down turned on. The company has just added an important service to its application and wants to track this service as a unique Business Transaction. What action is needed to achieve this?

Use the Business Transaction Dashboard for the tier-specific All Other Traffic to register the Business Transaction

Create a Custom Transaction Match Rule based on the Web Service Name and Operation Name

Create a Custom Transaction Match Rule based on the Web Service Name and Operation Name

Suggested answer: D

Explanation:

When Business Transaction Lock Down is enabled in AppDynamics, no new business transactions will be automatically discovered to avoid uncontrolled growth in the number of business transactions. To track a new service as a unique Business Transaction, one needs to create a Custom Match Rule that specifies the criteria for identifying the business transaction. In this case, the Custom Match Rule should be based on the Web Service Name and Operation Name which are the distinguishing characteristics of the new service. This allows for the precise identification and monitoring of the service within the AppDynamics platform.

Reference: AppDynamics documentation on Business Transaction configuration and Custom Match Rules.

Dynamic Monitoring Mode

Dynamic Monitoring Mode

Suggested answer: A

Explanation:

Server Tagging in AppDynamics allows a Performance Analyst to compare and filter related servers by using custom metadata. This feature enables users to group and organize their servers based on criteria that make sense for their environment, such as role, location, environment type, or any other custom metadata.

When should URI Segments be used in Transaction Detection rules?

When identifying business transactions using particular parts of the SMTP request

When the application is a Web-Oriented Technology

When the application is a Web-Oriented Technology

When the agent names the business transaction for the Web service name plus the operation name

When the agent names the business transaction for the Web service name plus the operation name

Suggested answer: C

Explanation:

URI Segments should be used in Transaction Detection rules when the application is web-oriented. Web-oriented applications often have meaningful information in the URI that can identify different business transactions. URI Segments can help in defining patterns that match specific parts of the URI to distinguish different transactions.

Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

When analyzing database performance in AppDynamics, the 'Queries' tab within the database collector view is where a Performance Analyst should navigate to find slow queries. This tab presents a list of database queries executed by the application, highlighting those with long execution times, which are potential bottlenecks impacting application performance.

AppDynamics documentation on Database Monitoring: Details the database collector feature, including how to use the Queries tab to identify and analyze slow database queries.

What are two differences between creating a Transaction Group using the 'Create Group' action and defining a Transaction Detection rule? (Choose two.)

A Transaction Detection Rule changes the name of the incoming request and reduces the number of overall Business transactions.

A Transaction Group aggregates the data of multiple transactions.

Transaction Groups create Transaction Detection Rules in a faster easier way.

Transaction Groups create Transaction Detection Rules in a faster easier way.

Suggested answer: C, D

Explanation:

Creating a Transaction Group using the 'Create Group' action in AppDynamics allows for the aggregation of data from multiple transactions under a single group, facilitating a consolidated view of similar transactions. This differs from defining a Transaction Detection Rule, which typically focuses on identifying and categorizing individual transactions based on specific criteria. Transaction Groups do not change the names of incoming requests nor reduce the number of overall business transactions; instead, they provide a method for organizing and analyzing related transactions collectively, offering a streamlined approach compared to individually configuring Transaction Detection Rules for each transaction.

AppDynamics documentation on Business Transactions: Covers the concept of Transaction Groups and their role in organizing and analyzing transaction data, as well as the process for creating and managing Transaction Detection Rules.

Class/Method Filter

Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

When configuring Automatic Cleanup of stale Business Transactions, the 'minutes since creation' option is often paired with the 'Number of Calls' metric. This setting ensures that business transactions that have not been called within a certain timeframe and have had a negligible number of calls are automatically cleaned up, helping to maintain an organized and relevant set of business transactions in the monitoring system.

AppDynamics documentation on Business Transactions: Discusses best practices for managing business transactions, including the automatic cleanup based on time and call volume thresholds.
