No Visible agent on Agent Breakdown dashboard (DT Client)
amit4aws opened this issue · 9 comments
Hi All,
I am new to github and since i am familiar with DynaTrace i started exploring the option of deploying the APP Mon to monitor microservices running on my docker container.
I followed the instruction provided on readme however did not install any specific agent and installed the license via client.
Doing that i am not seeing any connected agent. I have a microservice container built on spring boot running on docker that i want to monitor. Can i please get some help with this ?
Hi @kumar4sun ,
have you installed any agent by running docker-compose from Dynatrace-Agent-Examples?
@BlazejT Thanks for responding. This is where my confusion is. I looked at the examples and there are variety of it available at git hub for example :- glassfish,httpd,java,nginx and tomcat. I am not sure which one to use. I have a microservice built from Spring boot running on Ubuntu Docker container. are there any further instructions or information available on how to install and configure the Agent ?
@BlazejT I looked at the video reference on your tube (https://youtu.be/B_oWkBjH-Uk) and followed the instruction provided on git hub but didn;t get the clue on how to configure the DT agent on docker with collector. In video it was told we don;t have to install any specific agent.Also the default pull of docker master contains three Agent directories :- 1: Dynatrace-Agent-Win 2: Dynatrace-Agent 3: Dynatrace-Agent-Example.
On executing docker ps i can see server,collector and agent running. Now i am not sure with the instruction if i have to Install a separate agent and configure it with collector or configure the already installed Agent with Collector. Also, what is required to be configured ?
@kumar4sun
I would be happy to walk you through the steps to instrument your app with AppMon agents. Please let me know a good way to reach you.
@Dynatrace-Asad-Ali , Is it possible to help me tomorrow 12 PM EST ? Can you Please let me know how would you like to schedule this session ? I have a presentation coming up and would like to present a demo on our micro-services on docker rather than on EasyTravel.
@kumar4sun Yes, I do have time today (Friday) at noon EST. What is the best way to reach you?
@kumar4sun, about your confusion - Agent component just runs the container with Agent libraries. Your task is configure them and/or run them, that's why there are some Agent examples. The Agent container does not run any Agents. You can configure them from WebServer UI as well if you'd like.
In case you haven't resolved the issue with Appmon Agents configuration with @Dynatrace-Asad-Ali , here are some guidelines:

PS. Please mind that we talk about Dynatrace Appmon Agents, not Dynatrace Agents/OneAgent.
Let us know if it helped.
Thanks @BlazejT . I am going through the link and update you as soon as possible.
@Dynatrace-Asad-Ali i am back to this task after a break. Will you be able to help me with this ? I have still not able to configure the agent
