Help needed for configuration of java agents
Hi,
We are planning to increase reach of dynaTrace in our project to monitor below mentioned servers:
- IBM WebSeal (Tivoli Access Management)
- TAM LDAP
- TIM LDAP
- IBM Websphere
Could you please let us know if there are documents to inject agents in above mentioned servers or any support links ?
Thanks in advance.
Thanks,
Anusha
All java applications are started with "java" command. Identify the java command (may be a startup script) and use the -agentpath option of java command to add agent to the application.
Here is the documentation link for Java Agent Configuration
-Sreerag
Here are some detailed information about IBM Websphere:
Whatever Your LDAP servers are based on (OpenLDAP?) you will need to add the -agentpath parameter as described in the documentation if the servers are Java Based. In my experience you don't get a lot of information out of instrumenting LDAP servers though on the application level as you don't have control over the source likely.
Anusha,
We never had much success with instrumenting WebSEAL. And, I agree with Reinhard in the fact that you won't get much out of instrumenting LDAP. However, I would recommend using a product like DCRUM for monitoring both sides of the WebSEAL implementation--if you're using the proxy that is. We've uncovered plenty of issues using network monitoring on the WebSEAL.
dynatrace and WebSphere on the other hand will give you plenty of benefit for the applications you are monitoring. To inject agents here, use Sreerag's links to get the format of the agentpath and add that to the application JVM startup parameters in the WAS admin console.
